When a jet plane is cruising at high altitude, the flight attendants have more of a "hill" to climb as they walk forward along the aisle than when the plane is cruising at a lower altitude. Why does the pilot have to fly with a greater "angle of attack" at high altitude than at low?

explanation:

force is mass*acceleration.

we have a very small mass: 11.4*0.001 kg

if we want 0.035n of force, we need an acceleration:

0.035 = 11.4*0.001*a

a = 0.035/(11.4*0.001) m/s^2

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
