What shape is most conducive to optimizing lift?
airfoil
What is the difference between airfoil profile and airfoil section?
The difference between airfoil and airfoil section is that airfoil is a structure with curved surfaces designed to give the most favorable ratio of lift to drag in a flight, it is used as the basic form of wings, fins, and tailplanes of most aircraft. An airfoil section is the cross- sectional shape or profile of an airfoil. I studied that in sixth grade for a model plane that I did a report on. Researching into things that aren't required can help put you farther into life's riches. Hope I helped.
How many angles has a 5 sided shape have?
The whole shape has 540 degrees in it. To work out the amount of degrees in any shape - total degrees in shape = ((180 x number of sides of shape) - 360)
How do planes stay in the sky?
because the airfoil shape makes tiny air molecules at the bottom slow down and the top speed up. The engine just pushes the plane.
How do you work out the base area of a prism?
That depends on the shape of the base. A prism can have any sort of polygon for its base.
