Final answer:

The labels indicating the lack of change in wind pressure, requirements for an assistant, smoothness of flight, and the difficulty in detecting speed are all tied to principles of air movement and flight in physics, demonstrating Newton's first law of motion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Drag each label to the correct location on the image to illustrate the principles of flight and air movement. To determine which label provides the best evidence for each of the statements about the passage, consider the following:

  • Air movement affects flight: The sensation when outside wind pressure on your face does not change, illustrating that air movement (or lack thereof) can impact the perception of speed and force during flight.

  • The plane requires two people for flight: The assistant holding the machine in balance supports this statement because it suggests a multi-person operation for stabilization and movement.

  • The plane ride is remarkably smooth: The absence of the feeling of being thrown from your seat provides evidence that the plane's motion is stable and smooth.
  • Speed is difficult to detect in the air: The lack of sensation of motion or changes in pressure reflects that without a stationary point of reference, it is challenging to perceive speed in the air.

Understanding these concepts is crucial, considering that the movement of air and how it affects flight relates to basic physics principles such as Newton's first law, which describes the tendency of objects to remain in uniform motion unless acted upon by a force.

The label that provides the best evidence for the statement 'Air movement affects flight' is 'The machine is placed upon a single-rail track facing the wind'. This label suggests that the machine is designed to utilize the air movement to achieve flight. The fact that the machine is placed on a single-rail track indicates that it relies on the air movement to create lift and propel forward.

The label that provides the best evidence for the statement 'The plane requires two people for flight' is not provided in the given information.

The label that provides the best evidence for the statement 'The plane ride is remarkably smooth' is not provided in the given information.

The label that provides the best evidence for the statement 'Speed is difficult to detect in the air' is not provided in the given information.
