Module 8

Aerodynamics
This is exam number 4

1. When a leading edge slat opens, there is a gap between the


slat and the wing. This is

a) to allow it to retract back into the wing


b) to allow air through to re-energize the boundary
layer on top of the wing
c) to keep the area of the wing the same

2. Which of the following is true?

a) Lift acts at right angles to the wing chord line


and weight acts vertically down
b) Lift acts at right angles to the relative airflow
and weight acts vertically down
c) Lift acts at right angles to the relative air flow
and weight acts at right angles to the aircraft
centre line

3. If the wing tips stall before the root on a swept wing


aircraft, the aircraft will

a) roll
b) pitch nose up
c) pitch nose down

4. Lift on a delta wing aircraft

a) increases with an increased angle of incidence


(angle of attack)
b) decreases with an increase in angle of incidence
(angle of attack)
c) does not change with a change in angle of
incidence (angle of attack)

5. On a straight wing aircraft, stall commences at the

a) root on a high thickness ratio wing


b) tip on a high thickness ratio wing
c) tip on a low thickness ratio wing

1
6. On a high wing aircraft in a turn

a) the up-going wing loses lift causing a de-


stabilizing effect
b) the down-going wing gains lift causing a
stabilizing effect
c) the down-going wing loses lift causing a de-
stabilizing effect

7. For the same angle of attack, the lift on a delta wing

a) is greater than the lift on a high aspect ratio


wing
b) is lower than the lift on a high aspect ratio wing
c) is the same as the lift on a high aspect ratio wing

8. Standard sea level temperature is

a) 0 degrees Celsius
b) 15 degrees Celsius
c) 20 degrees Celsius

9. As altitude increases, pressure

a) decreases at constant rate


b) increases exponentially
c) decreases exponentially

10. Deployment of a split flap will

a) increase wing area and increase drag


b) pitch the nose down and decrease drag
c) increase camber and increase drag
