210 - ATPL Question Bank in English - Which statement correctly describes the pressure-driven spanwise airflow associated with tip vortices on a finite wing producing positive lift in normal flight?

Question 210 - Principles of Flight - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot Licence

Tip vortices can be diminished by vortex generators
The flow direction at the upper side of the wing has a component in wing root direction, the flow at the underside of the wing in wing tip direction
The wing tip vortices and the induced drag decrease at increasing angle of attack
The flow direction at the upper and under side of the wing, both deviate in wing tip direction
