Chapter 3

Chapter3-3262- The pitot system provides impact pressure for which instrument?

Airspeed Indicator

Chapter3-3010-Vs0 is defined as the__?

Stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed in a specific configuration.

Chapter3-3261-If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85, what change occurs

70 Foot increase in density altitude

Chapter3-3391-If a flight is made from an area of high pressure into an area of lower pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicate?

Higher than the actual altitude above sea level

Chapter3-3392-Under what condition will true altitude be lower than indicated altitude?

In colder than standard air temperature

Chapter3-3281-In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn towards the east if

Left turn is entered from a north heading.

Chapter3-3390-If a flight is made from an area of low pressure into an area of high pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicate

Lower than the actual altitude above sea level

Chapter3-3279-Deviation in magnetic compass is caused by the

Magnetic fields within the aircraft distorting the lines of magnetic force.

Chapter3-3009- Vno is defined as the__?

Maximum Structural cruising speed.

Chapter3-3393-Which condition would cause the altimeter to indicate a lower altitude than true altitude?

Air temp warmer than standard

Chapter3-3387-If a pilot changes the altimeter setting from 30.11 to 29.96, what is the approximate change in indication?

Altimeter will indicate 150 feet lower

Chapter3-3282-In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate a towards the north if

An aircraft is accelerated while on an east or west heading.

Chapter3-3279-2-Deviation error of the magnetic compass is caused by?

Certain metals and electrical systems within the aircraft

Chapter3-3284-In the northern hemisphere, if an aircraft is accelerated or decelerated, the magnetic compass will normally indicate

Correctly when on a north and south heading.

Chapter3-3255-How do variations in temperature affect the altimeter?

Pressure Levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than the true altitude.

Chapter3-3283- In the northern hemisphere, the magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn towards the south when?

The aircraft is decelerated while on a west heading

Chapter3-3259-What is pressure altitude?

The altitude indicated when the barometric pressure scale is set to 29.92.

Chapter3-3283-1-What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the northern hemisphere?

The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.

Chapter3-3254-Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter indicates?

True altitude at field elevation

Chapter3-3260-Under what condition is indicated altitude the same as true altitude?

When at sea level under standard conditions.

Chapter3-3388-Under which condition will pressure altitude be = to true altitude?

When standard atmospheric conditions exist.
