Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge.
- Electrons in an atom are negatively charged.
Electromotive Force (EMF)
- EMF is measured in volts.
Aircraft Systems
- A 5:1 bypass ratio indicates that for every 5 units of cold air, 1 unit of hot air is utilized.
- Anti-skid brakes may become inoperational when taxing speed exceeds 10 knots.
Airfoil Characteristics
- Extending flaps causes the center of pressure (CP) to shift rearward.
Aircraft Structure
- The primary function of a bulkhead is to separate pressurized from unpressurized sections in the aircraft and resist hoop stress.
Stall Speeds
- Vso represents the stall speed with slats and flaps extended.
Depressurization Protocol
- Oxygen masks deploy automatically when an aircraft depressurizes.
Propeller Mechanics
- Geometric pitch differs from effective pitch based on helix angle, slip, and blade angle.
Static Stability
- Static stability refers to an aircraft's initial response to disturbances, indicating its tendency to return to a steady state.
Hydraulic Systems
- The purpose of a hydraulic sequencer valve is to sequence specific events within the hydraulic system and to activate the fire shutoff valve.
