How Do Birds Generate Lift and Drag While Gliding?
Ahh, okay, well honestly, i don't think we've covered this in class. I have a free body diagram already. Do you have any ideas on what equations i could use to solve these ? I understand F=ma, but due to them having angles it messes me up. I know Drag is 15 degrees from the horizontal and Lift...- 7Suarez

How Do Birds Generate Lift and Drag While Gliding?
1. A bird is gliding at an angle of 15° to the horizontal at a constant velocity. If the mass of the bird is 0.45 kg, calculate the lift and drag forces acting on the bird. 2.A bird is gliding with a constant velocity. Its forward speed is 5 m/s and its sinking speed is 0.88 m/s. If the...- 7Suarez
