Hi!
The angle of incidence is built into the aircraft, and cannot be changed. This angle is the angle that the wing makes with a level surface (such as if the ground if the aircraft were parked).
The angle of attack (commonly abbreviated AoA), is the angle that the chordline of the airfoil makes with the relative wind. So if you were in straight and level flight, maintaining altitude, the angle of attack would be zero degrees.
When an aircraft exceeds a critical angle of attack (which is determined by the design of the airplane), the airflow will peel off of the wing, causing the wing to stop producing lift. The aircraft is, in this scenario, stalled.
Hope this helps.

What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between the angle of attack and angle of incidence?
Zero degrees.
What is the difference between angle of incidence and angel of reflection?
None. They are the same angle.
What is the difference of angle of incidence ad the angle of reflection?
0(zero) Angle of incidence = angle of reflection
What are angle of reflection and angle of incidence?
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray of radiation (usually light) and the normal (perpendicular) at the point of incidence. Similarly, the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal.
What is the angle between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection?
the angle of incidence is the initial ray angle and the angle of reflection is the reflected ray angle
What is the difference between the angle of attack and angle of incidence?
Zero degrees.
What is the difference between angle of incidence and angel of reflection?
None. They are the same angle.
What is the difference of angle of incidence ad the angle of reflection?
0(zero) Angle of incidence = angle of reflection
What is the formula for angle of incidence?
The formula for calculating the angle of incidence is: Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence.
Does the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection change as the angle of incidence increases?
No, the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection remains the same regardless of the angle of incidence. This relationship is governed by the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
If the angle between the mirror and incident ray is 50 what will be the angle of incidence?
The angle of incidence is defined as the angle between the incoming light and the line that is normal to the surface at the point where the light 'hits' the surface. The reflectrion angle is the same as the incidence angle. If the angle between the incident ray and the mirror ray is 50, then the angle of incidence is half of this. That is, 25 degrees.
The angle of incidence is the angle between what and the normal of the surface?
The angle of incidence it he angle at which the incident ray stikes the plane of the surface.
What is a sentence for angle of incidence?
The angle of incidence is the angle formed between an incident ray and the normal to a surface at the point of incidence.
What is Relationship between angle of incidence and angle of reflection?
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal, while the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal. According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
Which angle is the angle of incidence?
The angle of incidence of a ray (or light or other electromagnetic radiation) to a surface is the angle between the incoming ray and the normal - which is perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence
What is the size of the angle of incidence and reflection?
The size of the angle of incidence is equal to the size of the angle of reflection. This is known as the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is measured between the incident ray and the normal, and the angle of reflection is measured between the reflected ray and the normal.
What are angle of reflection and angle of incidence?
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray of radiation (usually light) and the normal (perpendicular) at the point of incidence. Similarly, the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal.
