Question

What provides lift, thrust and drag in war planes suich as the ones used in war? :S?

Answer 1

1) Lift - Wings + other lift generating surfaces/devices/canards

2) Thrust - Engine/s + any other 'assist' devices (JATO)

3) Drag - Air resistance + other mounted drag inducing structures/devices (air brakes/spoilers/thrust attenuators/full  flaps etc)

Answer 2

lift will be provided by the wings and the engines if they're pointed towards the ground

thrust will be provided by engines

drag will be provided by weapons, the airframe and the control surfaces.

Answer 3

Which one of Newton's Laws states equal and opposite reaction, is it the 2nd or the 3rd?  That works hand in hand with Bernoulli's Principle.  The wing also accelerate that air downwards towards the ground creating DOWN WASH and wingtip vorticies like MD80s make on final approach on the outboard trailing edge flaps.  You can also get into more advanced stuff like induced drag, lift of thrust, thrust of lift, WEIGHT acting as a component of thrust in a descent and acting as a component of drag, (skin, form, intersecting, induced, couldnt tell you right now).  The rivets they used on the wings and fuselage of those airplanes created a little bit of skin drag.  Control surfaces and wings create form and induced drag.

Answer 4

Lift from lifting airfoils such as wings and fuselage, and from engines.

Thrust from engines.

Drag from wings and anything else exerting friction.

Answer 5

Flaps and wings  for lift

Engines for thrust. When you are swimming and you push your self through water, you are 'thrusting' yourself forward.

Anything can cause drag.like the parachute that deploys when the space shuttle touches down.

The air that is moving more quickly above the curved wing starts to put less pressure on the wing while it adjusts to its new stream. Meanwhile, the air that is moving at a consistent speed below the wing maintains its rate of pressure. This quick differential produces lift. The higher air pressure pushes the wing upward into the space where the air pressure is lower. This causes lift, and is also know as Bernoulli's Principle which states that as the speed of a moving fluid (like air) increases, the pressure within that fluid decreases.

Now bombs that are strapped to the airplane make it less aerodynamic, and caused drag.
