Well we all love flying in planes from one place to
another but have you ever wondered how those large vehicles stay in the
air? The answer of coarse is the wings. Now that you know that
wings keep a plane aloft you are probably wondering how they work. Wings
keep a plane in the air because of Bernoulli's principle. In the
following pages you will learn who Bernoulli was and how we can apply his
principle to the wing model. |
