The Saturn V, fully loaded with fuel and payload, had 2.8 million kilograms of mass.
On Earth, then, standing on the pad before launch, it weighed 6.173 million pounds,
which is the same thing as 27.46 million newtons. Any force greater than that, even
one ounce or one newton greater, would have lifted it off.
The Saturn V's engines produced 34.02 million newtons of thrust, which was enough
to not only lift it off of the ground, but produce considerable acceleration besides.

How much thrust does it take to launch a rocket?
10,0000,00000009
Can the space shuttle take off like a plane?
No. It's internal engines do not have enough thrust, nor do the wings produce enough lift for the shuttle to lift off. If it attempted it, it would end in failure as a burning wreckage at the end of the runway.
What is a good wingspan to height ratio for a plane?
The wing span of the plan has nothing to do with the height of the air craft, it is more in line with weight and length than the height and even then it is mostly has to do with the weight. You see in order to get into the air you need what is called lift. Lift is obtain by passing wind over the wings causing the craft to literally lift of the ground, when you take gravity and the weight of the craft into consideration then you can start looking at the wing span. Now that being said you also must take thrust into consideration. Since you can lift a lot of weight off the ground with smaller wing span if you have enough thrust pushing you forward creating enough wind over/under the wings causing lift. There is still much more answer to this question of wing span but in a nut shell that's it.
How much time dose Saturn take to complete one revolution?
it takes 10.6hrs. Thats very rapid.Earth takes about 24hrs.Its still an approximate anwer(for both Saturn and Earth).
How long does it take to get to Saturn with a space shuttle?
How long it takes to get to Saturn depends on which route the shuttle takes. Generally, it can take between six and nine years to reach Saturn.
What is thrust capacity?
Thrust Capacity is how much thrust it can take :D
How much thrust does it take to take off from earth into space?
Any amount of thrust that's greater than the weight of the rocket vehicle will lift it off of the ground and accelerate it upward. If you keep it up long enough, the vehicle will be in space.
What part of aircraft makes flight to take off?
The engines provide forward thrust, allowing the wings to generate lift. It is the lift that allows the aircraft to take off.
How much thrust does it take to launch a rocket?

What helps produce thrust on a plane?
The initial launch a.k.a. your throw. After the initial throw gravity and lift take over. ;)
Where does dynamic equilibrium take place?
Where the energy going into a system equals that going out of it. An aircraft in steady, level flight is in equilibrium: Thrust=Drag, and Lift=Weight.
What causes airplanes to take off?
Lift is what ultimatly causes the plane to take off. When a plane get up to take off speed, that means the wings are generating enough lift to lift the plane up. The pilot will change the planes angle of attack with the elevators (located on the horizontal stabilizers) to the wind which forces engine thrust to push the plane into the air.
Where is the transmission dipstick on a 2002 Saturn Vue?
i have a 2003 Saturn vue and there is no dipstick for the transmission fluid. its a plug. you have to take you car to a shop and get them to check it... i know it sounds crazy. but they usually have to put it on a lift to get to it.
Can the space shuttle take off like a plane?
No. It's internal engines do not have enough thrust, nor do the wings produce enough lift for the shuttle to lift off. If it attempted it, it would end in failure as a burning wreckage at the end of the runway.
What are the four forces on an aircraft and how do they act on an aircraft?
For an airplane to fly, it must always engage in a tug of war between the opposing forces of lift versus weight and thrust versus drag. For a moment, think of an airplane moving from right to left and the flow of air moving from left to right. The weight or force due to gravity pulls down on the plane opposing the lift created by air flowing over the wing. Thrust is generated by the propellor and opposes drag caused by air resistance to the airplane. During take off, thrust must be greater than drag and lift must be greater than weight so that the airplane can become airborne. For landing thrust must be less than drag, and lift must be less than weight. Hope this helps
How long would it take to get to Saturn by jet?
You can't get to Saturn in a jet. It can't achieve enough thrust to escape the earth's gravity.
How much time does it take for the sun to completely go around Saturn?
The sun does not go around Saturn; Saturn orbits the sun in 29.46 Earth years.
