1. What two things determine the term 'angle of attack'?
  1. The wing and the relative flow of the wind
  2. The chord of the wing and the relative wind direction across it
  3. The lateral roll of the wing
  4. The attitude of the pilot when confronted with bad weather
See answer
2. Which statement relates to Bernoulli's principle?
  1. Mass is always conserved in an equation
  2. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
  3. Air moving over a wing causes a high pressure to develop under the wing drawing the plane upward into the air
  4. The airfoil (wing) splits an air mass causing the air to move faster over the top of the wing and causing a low pressure above the wing and pulling the wing skyward
