How does a helicopter get its lifting force?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The way thehelicopter gets its lifting force.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Landing and takeoff of helicopter is one of the best examples of aerodynamics.Newton’s laws of motion are the basic mechanism behind this.The main difference between the helicopter and airplane is the ability to fly vertically.
Lifting force is the perpendicular component of oncoming flow direction of fluid.If the fluid is air then this force is known as aerodynamic lift. In case of helicopter this lifting force used to encounter the force due to gravity.This force isalways perpendicular direction of the flow of fluid. In case of helicopter, air is flows in the horizontal direction.Main rotor of the helicopter rotates in the horizontal plane which is useful to apply the lifting force. Force exert on the air in downward direction,when main rotor blade rotates into the horizontal plane. Due to that equal amount of force exert by the air on the rotor blade in the upward direction, according to Newton’s 3rd law of motion. This upward force is nothing but lifting force. Due to this lifting force helicopter fly vertically.
Conclusion: Due to the upward lifting force helicopter fly vertically.

- Taking a Hike A hiker begins a trip by first walking 21.0 km southeast from her car. She stops and sets up her tent for the night. On the second day, she walks 46.0 km in a direction 60.0° north of east, at which point she discovers a forest ranger's tower. y (km) Can N W-DE 45.0° 60.0° Tent Tower B x (km) ☹ (a) Determine the components of the hiker's displacement for each day. SOLUTION Conceptualize We conceptualize the problem by drawing a sketch as in the figure. If we denote the displacement vectors on the first and second days by A and B, respectively, and use the ---Select-- as the origin of coordinates, we obtain the vectors shown in the figure. The sketch allows us to estimate the resultant vector as shown. Categorize Drawing the resultant R, we can now categorize this problem as one we've solved before: --Select-- of two vectors.
