In flight mechanics, “pulling up with load factor” refers to the action of increasing the angle of attack of an aircraft’s wings in such a way that the lift force generated by the wings exceeds the aircraft’s weight, causing the aircraft to experience an upward acceleration
- : This represents the lift coefficient, a dimensionless quantity that describes the amount of lift generated by an airfoil (such as an aircraft wing) at a given angle of attack.
- : This seems to represent the load factor, which is the ratio of the total force experienced by the aircraft to its weight (as explained in a previous response).
- : This is the weight of the aircraft.
- (rho): This symbolizes the air density, which is the mass of air per unit volume. Air density can vary with altitude and atmospheric conditions.
- : This stands for the velocity of the aircraft relative to the air.
- : This represents the wing area, the projected area of the wing perpendicular to the direction of flight.
