1. What effect does high density altitude have on the efficiency of a UA propeller?Not learned2. To ensure that the unmanned aircraft center of gravity (CG) limits are not exceeded, follow the aircraft loading instructions specified in theNot learned3. What could be a consequence of operating a small unmanned aircraft above its maximum allowable weight?Not learned4. According to 14 CFR part 107, who is responsible for determining the performance of a small unmanned aircraft?Not learned5. When operating an unmanned airplane, the remote pilot should consider that the load factor on the wings may be increased any timeNot learned6. A stall occurs when the smooth airflow over the unmanned airplane's wing is disrupted, and the lift degenerates rapidly. This is caused when the wingNot learned7. (Refer to Figure 2.) If an unmanned airplane weighs 33 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 30° banked turn while maintaining altitude?Not learned8. How would high density altitude affect the performance of a small unmanned aircraft?Not learned9. Operating outside of the weight and balance limits of an unmanned aircraftNot learned10. (Refer to Figure 2.) If an unmanned aircraft weighs 20 pounds, what approximate weight would the aircraft structure be required to support during a 60° banked turn while maintaining altitude?Not learned11. An unmanned aircraft has been loaded in such a manner that the CG is located aft of the aft CG limit. One undesirable flight characteristic a remote pilot might experience with this aircraft would beNot learned12. (Refer to Figure 2.) If an unmanned aircraft weighs 45 pounds, what approximate weight would the aircraft structure be required to support during a 45° banked turn while maintaining altitude?Not learned13. The four forces acting on an airplane in flight areNot learned14. When are the four forces that act on an airplane in equilibrium?Not learned15. (Refer to Figure 1.) The acute angle A is the angle ofNot learned16. The term "angle of attack" is defined as the angle between theNot learned17. What is the relationship of lift, drag, thrust, and weight when the airplane is in straight-and-level flight?Not learned18. An airplane said to be inherently stable willNot learned19. The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane depends upon theNot learned20. Which basic flight maneuver increases the load factor on an airplane as compared to straight-and-level flight?Not learned21. What effect does high density altitude, as compared to low density altitude, have on propeller efficiency and why?Not learned22. What is density altitude?Not learned23. If the outside air temperature (OAT) at a given altitude is warmer than standard, the density altitude isNot learned24. Which combination of atmospheric conditions will reduce aircraft takeoff and climb performance?Not learned25. What effect does high density altitude have on aircraft performance?Not learned26. What effect, if any, does high humidity have on aircraft performance?Not learned27. The angle of attack at which an airplane wing stalls willNot learned28. Under which condition will pressure altitude be equal to true altitude?Not learned29. Under what condition is pressure altitude and density altitude the same value?Not learned30. Which factor would tend to increase the density altitude at a given airport?Not learned31. Which statement relates to Bernoulli's principle?Not learned32. The angle between the chord line of an airfoil and the relative wind is known as the angle ofNot learned33. Changes in the center of pressure of a wing affect the aircraft'sNot learned34. At what bank angle for a turn does the additional force on the wings become significant?Not learned35. Center of gravity can be found byNot learned36. In weight and balance calculations, arm isNot learned
