when flight moves the velocity of air above and below the plane is different ..this gives it an upward thrust (according to bernauli's theorem).

What are The four forces acting on an airplane in flight are?
Thrust (forward), Gravity (down), Drag (back), Lift (up)
What are the two forces acted upon the airplane when in flight?
the two forces acted upon the airplane when in flight is Lift/Gravity and Thrust/Drag(:
What is the force the keeps the plane in the air?
The four forces of flight are : Lift, Thrust, Drag, and Gravity. The answer to your question is Lift.
What is all the forces added together?
Air Resistance, Gravity, Push, Pull, Drag, Friction and Up thrust
How does the lift thrust drag and gravity affect a helicopter?
Lift, thrust, drag, and gravity affects all flying objects and wildlife. The blades of the helicopter provide lift, drag and thrust.
Why did the Wright brothers achieve in flight?
I can tell you HOW: they used the forces of flight; lift, thrust, drag, and gravity That's pretty much WHY they achieved flight
What are The four forces acting on an airplane in flight are?
Thrust (forward), Gravity (down), Drag (back), Lift (up)
Name the 4 forces of flight?
The 4 forces of Flight are: Gravity,Drag Force,Lift and Thrust
What four forces act on a plane during flight?
The four forces of flight during flight are lift gravity thrust and drag
What are the scientific principles involved in?
The four principles of flight are Thrust, Lift, Drag and Gravity
How does a rocket achieve maximum flight?
A rocket (firework) achieves maximum height once the fuel plus upward thrust runs out. Then gravity takes over and the rocket falls back to the ground.
What four forces is a model rocket subject to during a flight?
Lift, drag, thrust, and gravity.
What are the two forces acted upon the airplane when in flight?
the two forces acted upon the airplane when in flight is Lift/Gravity and Thrust/Drag(:
Is thrust the upward force the opposes the force of gravity?
Actually thrust is aerodynamically involved, its the driving force that accelerates the aircrafts in forward direction and the opposite force is drag. The opposing force against gravity in a flight is lift.
What is the force the keeps the plane in the air?
The four forces of flight are : Lift, Thrust, Drag, and Gravity. The answer to your question is Lift.
How come an airplane floats in air?
Essentially there are 4 aerodynamic forces that act on an airplane in flight; these are lift, drag, thrust and gravity (or weight).In simple terms, drag is the resistance of air (the backward force), thrust is the power of the airplane's engine (the forward force), lift is the upward force and gravity is the downward force. So for airplanes to fly, the thrust must be greater than the drag and the lift must be greater than the gravity (so as you can see, drag opposes thrust and lift opposes gravity).This is certainly the case when an airplane takes off or climbs. However, when it is in straight and level flight the opposing forces of lift and gravity are balanced. During a descent, gravity exceeds lift and to slow an airplane drag has to overcome thrust.
What has the evolution of flight allows insects do?
Insects fly by air aerodynamics lift,thrust,drag,gravity! Sheesh use your brains!
