Gravity manifests as weight, which must be overcome. The forward motion of the foil section of the wings with respect to the ambient (static) air generates lift in excess of the aircraft's weight. When that airflow over the wings produces less lift than the aircraft's weight, it's called an aerodynamic stall.

Can airplanes fly without air?

No, the air is what allows for lift. The only way an airplane can "fly" without air is if the downward force of gravity didn't exist.


Why don't gravity pulls airplane?

Gravity pulls everything at all times. The reason airplanes are allowed to fly is because they give enough lift. Airplanes push back on gravity more than gravity pushes on them, allowing them to stay in the air.

Can airplanes or satellites fly in the thermosphere?

Yes, airplanes cannot fly in the thermosphere due to the extremely low air density at that altitude. Satellites do not fly in the traditional sense but orbit within the thermosphere, taking advantage of the lack of air resistance.


Why do paper airplanes fly?

Paper airplanes fly due to the principles of aerodynamics. When a paper airplane is thrown, the shape of its wings and the angle at which it is thrown create lift, which allows the airplane to stay in the air and glide. The force of gravity pulling the airplane down is counteracted by the lift generated by the wings, allowing the airplane to fly.


What must airplanes do to fly through the air?

In order to fly, airplanes use aerofoil-shaped wings. An aerofoil is a shape that forms higher pressure beneath than above, pushing the plane up. The engine helps to accelerate the aircraft to a high enough speed to overcome gravity.

How do you fly in air?

What happened when lift is greater then gravity?

When lift is greater than gravity, the object or aircraft experiences upward acceleration, causing it to ascend into the air. This is how airplanes are able to take off and stay airborne. The excess lift is used to counteract the force of gravity, allowing the object to fly or hover in the air.
