Helicopters vs. Airplanes What only helicopters can do vs. Only helicopters can hover and move backwards! AHS INTERNATIONAL
Acceleration position current location AHS INTERNATIONAL velocity change in position acceleration change in velocity
Force has strength and direction. Isaac Newton’s 2 nd Law: Force = mass × acceleration Newton’s 3 rd Law: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction AHS INTERNATIONAL
Forces of Flight
Acceleration due to Gravity ? ? Where is Taylor going to fall down faster? On EARTH! The fall is about 6 times faster on Earth than on the Moon!
Suggested slide: Prof. Celi demoed this at a recent AHS STEM outreach with good responses from students
How Lift is Created
Forces of Flight
Standard Helicopter Flight Controls Tilts helicopter forward, backwards and side to side Controls direction Makes helicopter go up Involves both hands and both feet! AHS INTERNATIONAL
Paper Helicopter Construction Fold along dotted lines Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Paper Helicopter Template AHS INTERNATIONAL
Paper Helicopter Demo Flight Launch paper helicopter and observe during “flight” AHS INTERNATIONAL

Unique VTOL Aircrafts
First supersonic STOVL stealth aircraft F-35 B Lightning II AHS INTERNATIONAL
Why are helicopters unique?
Important Information • Airfoil: The distinct shape of the wing of an airplane or the rotor blades of a helicopter • Angle of Attack: The angle of the airfoil, using the body of the aircraft as a reference point. • Pressure: The force exerted on an object • Velocity: The speed at which and object is travel at • Gravity on Earth: 9. 807 m/s² • Gravity on the Moon: 1. 622 m/s² AHS INTERNATIONAL
