26- Dutch Roll affects? yaw and roll simultaneously
27- At speeds above Mach 1, shockwaves will form above and below the wing? at both the leading edge and the
trailing edge
28- When airflow velocity over an upper cambered surface of an aerofoil decreases, what takes place? Pressure
increases, lift decreases.
29- Lift will increase when ___ will increase ? Pressure
30- Supersonic air going through an incipient shock wave will decrease its speed and increase temperature and
increase density.
