    The primary force an airfoil has to defeat is

    • A.

      Lift.

    • B.

      Drag.

    • C.

      Thrust.

    • D.

      Weight.

    Correct Answer
    D. Weight.
    Explanation
    The primary force an airfoil has to defeat is weight. Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object and acts vertically downwards. When an aircraft is in flight, it needs to generate enough lift to overcome the weight and stay airborne. Lift is the upward force created by the airfoil shape of the wings. Drag is the resistance force experienced by the aircraft as it moves through the air, and thrust is the force produced by the engines to propel the aircraft forward. However, the primary force that needs to be overcome is the weight of the aircraft.

      Lift.

    • B.

      Drag.

    • C.

      Thrust.

    • D.

      Weight.

    Correct Answer
    A. Lift.
    Explanation
    When an object moves through the air, it experiences a force called lift. Lift is a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of the relative wind. It is responsible for keeping an object, such as an airplane, in the air. Drag is a force that opposes the motion of the object through the air. Thrust is the force that propels an object forward. Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. Therefore, the force that acts upward at a right angle to the direction of relative wind is lift.

      Drag.

    • C.

      Gravity.

    • D.

      Weight.

    Correct Answer
    B. Drag.
    Explanation
    Drag is the force that acts parallel to the relative wind. It is a resistive force that opposes the motion of an object through a fluid, such as air. In the context of aerodynamics, drag is caused by the interaction between the object and the air molecules. It is an important factor to consider in designing efficient and streamlined objects, as minimizing drag can reduce energy consumption and increase speed.
