A student asked about the following during a discussion on torque and
rotation. Evidently the student is taking flying lessons, and they were
told there was a limit to the acceleration a prop driven craft could have on
take off after which point the plane spins off the runway. What force
creates this torque? Why doesn't it exist when the plane is in the air?
I have a couple of ideas I threw out, but look forward to hearing your
expert opinions.
Thanks in Advance,
