Def of Inertia (First Newton’s Laws of Motion)
An object at rest remains at rest or in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in straight line if all external forces cancel each other out
Dynamics Fondamental Principle (Second Newton’s Laws)
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied
Action and Reaction (Third Newton’s Laws) and an example
Whenever (“à chaque fois”) one object exerts a force on a second object, the second one exerts an equal and opposite force on the first
ex : the hot exhaust gases flow out the back of the engine
What are the forward, the downward and the upward forces applied on a airplane ?
-forward force : thrust
-downward force : weight
-upward force : lift
What is the vertical axis on an airplane ?
The yaw
What is the lateral axis on an airplane ?
The pitch
What is the longitudinal on an airplane ?
