Rocketry	Orbits	Aviation	Weight and Balance	control
100 What is a launch vehicle The portion of a rocket designed to get payload from Earth to space	100 periapsis The lowest/closest point of an orbit	100 Name the four forces of flight Thrust, drag, lift, weight	100 Stability A tendency to return to the initial state	100 What is yaw rotation about the vertical axis
200 What is a stage Part of a rocket that can be detached/discarded after use	200 apoapsis The highest/farthest point in an orbit	200 Name the three axes vertical, longitudinal, lateral	200 Center of mass The average point of mass, the balance point of a structure	200 Decreasing Thrust will reduce speed/begin a descent
300 The father of modern rocketry Dr. Robert Goddard	300 Transfer Orbit An orbit used to get from one orbit to another (I.e low altitude orbit to high altitude)	300 "Air flowing over the top of a curved wing has higher velocity and lower pressure" Bernoulli's principle	300 Center of lift the average point of lift on an airplane	300 Ailerons control movement about the ____ axis longitudinal
400 What is the benefit of an aerospike engine Efficiency	400 To increase the size of an orbit you must: Increase your velocity	400 High Angle of attack; airflow separation Conditions for a stall	400 The 4 fundamental flight maneuver turns, climbs, descents, straight and level
500 What is eccentricity The shape of the orbit ranging from circular to elliptical	500 Differential Yaw The tendency for an airplane to yaw opposite of roll due to inequal drag	500 What is moment The effect of a mass on total balance (weightxarm=moment)	500 The term fly by wire means: An aircraft that is controlled via computer inputs
