Aerodynamics of a Plane
CYSF · 2025 Bronze Medal
Overview
How does aerodynamics affect the flight of a plane
Problem
How does aerodynamics affect the flight of a plane?
Method
NA we will not be conducting any experiments.
Research
Our Presentation includes fact like how lift,drag,weight,thrust,centre of gravity,centre of pressure work and how they affect the flight of a plane
Data
We collected most of our data from nasa and a couple of exterior websites
Conclusion
In conclusion our project shows how aerodynamics affect the flight of a plane and how perfect the conditions of earth are to be able to be compatible with this sort of engineering. Understanding the key points on flight is very important to pilots. Me and Andrew really enjoyed making this project thank you for viewing and giving our project a chance.
Sincerely Farhad,Andrew
