lietadlá

Lietadlá, commonly referred to as airplanes or aircraft, are powered, fixed-wing aircraft that are propelled forward by thrust from a jet engine, propeller, or rocket engine. They are designed to fly by using aerodynamic lift created by the wings. The fundamental principle of flight for most lietadlá involves Newton's third law of motion, where the air pushed downwards by the wings generates an equal and opposite upward force, known as lift.

The history of lietadlá is marked by significant innovation, with the Wright brothers achieving the first sustained and controlled flight in 1903. Since then, lietadlá have evolved dramatically, from early biplanes to modern supersonic jets and massive airliners. They are crucial for global transportation, enabling rapid travel across continents and oceans. Beyond passenger transport, lietadlá serve a wide range of purposes, including cargo delivery, military operations, aerial surveillance, agricultural spraying, and scientific research.

Key components of a lietadlo include the fuselage, wings, tail assembly, and propulsion system. The fuselage typically houses the crew and passengers or cargo. Wings provide the lift necessary for flight and often contain fuel tanks and control surfaces like ailerons and flaps. The tail assembly, comprising the horizontal and vertical stabilizers, provides stability and control. The propulsion system, whether jet engines or propellers, generates the thrust to overcome drag and achieve forward motion. The continued development of lietadlá focuses on increased efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced safety features.
