Which principle explains why an aircraft wing generates lift?
A
Pascal's principle
B
Bernoulli's principle
C
Archimedes' principle
D
Newton's first law only
Correct Answer: Option B — Bernoulli's principle
Explanation:
Bernoulli's principle explains that faster moving air over the curved upper wing surface has lower pressure than the slower air beneath crea...
Bernoulli's principle explains that faster moving air over the curved upper wing surface has lower pressure than the slower air beneath creating a net upward lift force.
