If you mean vertical speed, you would need to know the amount of lift it's generating, its cross-sectional area and its drag factor (at least!). More info needed.
Lift/Drag x Height loss
Winglets descrease induced drag (drag from the production of lift) created by wing-tip vortices, simply turbulent airflow off the edge of the wing. So they do increase handling characteristics and fuel efficiency because of the increase in lift and decrease in drag. Hope this helped!
A sloped surface is used to help lift a load up.
A higher angle of attack has an increase of both lift and drag.
Lift, thrust, drag, and gravity affects all flying objects and wildlife. The blades of the helicopter provide lift, drag and thrust.
Different styles of wings can affect a paper airplane's flight distance by changing factors such as lift and drag. Wings with a larger surface area or higher aspect ratio tend to generate more lift, promoting longer flights. On the other hand, wings with a more streamlined shape can reduce drag, contributing to improved aerodynamics and potentially increasing the distance the paper airplane can travel.

It is thrust, lift, drag and weightthat affect an aircraft's ability to fly. It is thrust that moves the aircraft forward through the air. The thrust overcomes drag and provides (with the wings) lift to overcome weight.
Drag cannot be eliminated because drag always acts parallel to the relative wind. We can control by purchasing or using the right airfoil on the aircraft. An airfoil with smooth surface produces more lift than one with a rough surface. A rough surface creates turbulence, which reduced lft and increases drag.
it makes the lift increase a lot but is slow the plane down a lot as well that is why the pilots like me use is when we are landing a plane.
The production of lift creates induced drag. To create more lift, more airspeed is needed, and with airspeed, comes drag.
lift decrease and increase drag
coefficient of drag in 0 lift
The flight of a body mainly depends on its response to the atmospheric air, the shape of the body & the forces acting on the body i.e lift, drag, thrust & weight. The two forces lift & drag are the ones primly influenced by the shape of the body and account to the aerodynamic nature of the body. Every body produces certain amount of lift & drag but its only the measure of these forces affect the flight. More lift helps the body to sustain flight ; less drag accounts for more aerodynamic nature of the body i.e, less lift/thrust is required to sustain the flight and viceversa .
For no lift, The induced drag will be zero. However, there will still be drag due to viscous forces and pressure forces.
