Understanding Weather

Nimbostratus. Cumulonimbus. Towering cumulus.

Turbulent air. Showery precipitation. Poor surface visibility.

Efficiency is reduced because the propeller exerts less force at high density altitudes than at low density altitudes. Efficiency is reduced due to the increased force of the propeller in the thinner air. Efficiency is increased due to less friction ...
