Is the upward force on a airplane wing a thrust?
No. We call the upward component of force "lift"."Thrust" is the component of force forward ... the direction the plane's nose points.
What is the upward force that is exerted by a gas or liquid called?
well The upward force of a liquid or gas on an object is called
What force makes it difficult for an airplane to gain altitude fly upward?
These forces are called drag and gravity. Gravity is the downward force on the plane, keeping it from flying, but if the lift, the opposing force, is strong enough, you will achieve flight. Drag is the force pulling you back, making it harder to go forward. This force is produced by air pressure on the front of the plane. The opposing force in this case is thrust, which makes the plane move forward.
What is the upward force due to a pressure difference between the top and bottom of a wing?
The upward force is called lift.
What is the upward force of an object in a liquid called?
buoyancy
What is the upward force created by a plane called?
lift

The upward force that makes a cork float is called?
The upward force that makes corks, or any substance or object, float is called buoyancy.
What is the upward force due to a pressure difference between the top and bottom of a wing?

The upward force on a boat floating on water is called?
It's called the buoyancy force.
The forward force from a plane's engine is called?
The forward force from a plane's engine is called THRUST.
What is the upward force of an object in a liquid called?
buoyancy
What keeps planes in the air if gravity pulls us down?
A plane is designed so that when it moves forward the air moving across its wings creates an upward force called lift, which counteracts the force of gravity.
What is an upward force exerted by water and other fluids?
The upward force exerted by fluids is called buoyancy. It is dependent on the weight of the object in question.
What is the net upward force caused by displaced fluid called?
I think density force
