atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.7 psi
the force that acts parallel to the relative wind is drag
the axis that extends lengthwise through the fuselage from the nose to the tail is the longitudinal
the axis that extends crosswise from wing tip to wing tip is the lateral
movement about the vertical axis is called yaw
the flight control located on the longitudinal control surface is the elevator
the type of flight control system that allows the pilot to control the acft if hydraulic pressure is lost is manual
when making a right turn the relative position of the ailerons is the right aileron up, left aileron down
the flight control surfaces used to make an acft climb or dive are elevators
the type of flap normally incorporated on bomber and cargo type acft is fowler
acft have a trim systems to correct minor deviations in flight attitude.
the law that states "the distortion of any elastic body is proportional to the distorting force" is known as hook's law
when any force causes a solid to change permanently, the solid is said to have passed the elastic limite
the most outstanding characteristic of a liquid is its ability to conform to the shape of its container
pascal's law applies to confined fluids at rest
among the first to study the compressability of gases was Boyle
the person who found all gases expand and contract in direct proportion to the change in temp provided the pressure remains constant was Charles
if 50 psi of cylinder pressure acts on 5-square-inch piston head the resulting forse will be 250 lbs
when an 8 sq inch piston moves 5 inches within a cylinder, the volume of liquid displaced will be 40 cubic inches
the principle which states that as the velocity of a gas or liquid increases, pressure decreases is Bernoulli's
as fluid enters the narror portion of a venturi it accelerates
when referring to hydraulic hand pumps, double-action means fluid-flow is created with every other stroke of the pump handle
variable-volume pumps do not require a separate pressure regulating device in the system because they have an integral compensator
cooler operation in a variable-volume hydraulic pump is provided by creep plates
in the Stratopower variable-volume pump, the psitons are held in contact wiht the cam plate by the nutating plate
an accumulator's piston is installed with the hollow end toward the air side of the accumulator
the size fo one micron is four millionths of an inch
if a filter is rated at 10 microns nominal, it may allow some particles 10 microns or larger to get through
hydraulic manifolds are used in a hydraulic system to provide a location where the common fluid lines can come together
the pneudraulic system components that uses single-acting actuating cylinder is the brake assembly
what pneudraulic system components uses a double-acting balanced actuating cylinder nose wheel steering
some acft manufacturers use the term "power control cylinders" when referring to tandem actuators
the pressure at which the relief valve ball is slightly unseated is called the cracking pressure
the major advantage of the manual slide-type hydraulic selector valve is its metering ability
the main difference between a selector valve and a servo valve is the servo valve is electrically operated
the purpose of a hydrualic system check valve is to allow flow in only one direction
another name for a flapper check valve is gate check valve
allowing normal operating speed of a hydraulic actuator in one direction while limiting speed in the other direction is done by the restrictor check valve
the four major sections of a basic hydraulic system are supply, pressure, return, and auxiliary
the basic units of a hydraulic hand pump system are the reservoir, pump, actuator, and manuual shutoff valve
the reservoir supplies hydraulic fluid to the hand pump by gravity and suction effect of the pump
a relief valve is installed in a varaible-volume hydraulic pump to relieve pressure if the pump compensator fails
in most hydraulic subsystems, the actuating units are connected in parallel
the shock strut component that controls the rate of fluid flow through the orifice is the metering pin
the purpose of the torsion links on a main landing gear prevent the inner cylinder from rotating within the outer cylinder
the motion of the landing gear control lever is transmitted to the selector valve by a cable system
landing gear safety switches are actuated by torsion links
the two most common types of shimmy dampers used in nose wheel steering are piston and vane
the purpose of air brakes are retard motion using friction
the purpose of deboosters is to reduce braking pressure
the two types of emergency brake systems are hydraulic and electric
the purpose of the antiskid system is to prevent wheel skid by releasing pressure from the skidding wheel
split wheels are balanced individually by halves
an airtight seal is maintained between split wheel halves by use of o-ring seal
