Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The shape of the aeroplane wings is such that when it moves forward, the air molecules at the top of the wings have a greater velocity (relative to the wings) compared to the air molecules at the bottom. Therefore in accordance with Bernoulli's principle , the pressure at the top of the wings is less than that at the bottom. This results in a dynamic lift of the wings which balances the weight of the plane.
