Answer

airplane's centerline and the relative wind.

Answer

chord line of the wing and the relative wind

Question 7

What effect does high density altitude, as compared to low density altitude, have on propeller efficiency and why?

Accepted Answer

Efficiency is reduced because the propeller exerts less force at high density altitudes than at low density altitudes.

Answer

Efficiency is increased due to less friction on the propeller blades.

Answer
