Thrust must overcome drag for an aircraft to accelerate.
The aerodynamic resistance an aircraft encounters as it moves through the air.
Increased weight requires more lift and thrust to maintain flight.
An angle where the wing meets the oncoming air at a steep incline, increasing lift but also risk of stall.
Lift.
An angle that allows for optimal lift generation without risking a stall.
They help control the aircraft's orientation and maneuverability.
Lift, weight, thrust, and drag.
An angle where the wing meets the oncoming air at a shallow incline, resulting in lower lift and drag.
It experiences a stall.
Increasing the angle of attack generally increases lift up to a certain point.
