The term aerodynamics is defined as the science that deals with the flow of air.
There are several basic properties that we use in the study of air.
They are follows
01.Pressure
The normal force per unit area exerted on a surface.
02.Density
The density of a substance is the mass of that substance per unit volume.
03.Temperature
The temperature is a measure of the average Kinetic Energy of a gas.
04.Velocity
The Displacement at a direction per time unit.
05.A streamline
A streamline is the path taken by a molecule of a gas in a steady flow situation.
06.Altitude
Height above sea level
07.Geometric Altitude
The height of the aircraft relative to the local terrain, which could range from sea level to a mountain top.
08.Absolute Altitude
Absolute altitude is the geometric height from the centre of the earth.
