EASA Module 8 : Basic Aerodynamics Question-Answer An increase in the speed at which an aerofoil passes through the air increases lift because Ans a) the increased speed of the airflow creates a greater pressure differential between the upper and lower surfaces. b) the increased speed of the airflow creates a lesser pressure differential between the upper and lower surfaces. c) the increased velocity of the relative wind increases the angle of attack A delta wing has Ans a) a higher stall angle than a straight wing     b) a lower stall angle than a straight wing    c) the same stall angle than a straight wing The Lift/Drag ratio of a wing at the stalling angle is a) of a negative value     Ans b) low      c) high The airflow over the upper surface of a cambered wing a) increases in velocity and pressure     Ans b) increases in velocity and reduces in pressure c) reduces in velocity and increases in pressure The speed of air over a swept wing which contributes to the lif
