Applying left rudder turns the vertical stabilizer (tab) to the left, pushing the tail to the right and thereby the nose to the left (left turn). The primary role of the rudder is to reduce adverse yaw and thereby improve performance in banking turns and climbs.

The plane yaws left.
the control column is what the pilot does to move it left, right up and down, but the airplane itself moves either the ailerons on both wings or the rudder on the vertical stabilizer (the thing that sticks up at the back of the plane) when a pilot turns left with the ailerons, the right wing ailerons move down, improving airflow and lift, lifting the wing up, while the left wing ailerons move up, spoiling airflow and lift, therefore, as the right side goes higher, and the left side goes lower, the airplane turns left. for the rudder, it simply swings left or right, creating drag on either side.
Elevator - moves plane up and down Rudder - moves plane left and right (called yawing) Many planes also have aeilerons - this rolls the plane left and right. Most of these controls have trim tabs on their control surfaces so you can adjust the controls so the plane will fly straight and level in various flying conditions.
A pilot has special controls on the plane which are used to fly the plane. These are used to roll, pitch, and yaw the plane. To roll the plane to the right or left, the ailerons are raised on one wing and lowered on the other. The wing with the lowered aileron rises while the wing with the raised aileron drops. Pitch is to make a plane descend or climb. The pilot adjusts the elevators on the tail to make a plane descend or climb. Lowering the elevators caused the airplane's nose to drop, sending the plane into a down. Raising the elevators causes the airplane to climb. Yaw is the turning of a plane. When the rudder is turned to one side, the airplane moves left or right. The airplane's nose is pointed in the same direction as the direction of the rudder. The rudder and the ailerons are used together to make a turn .
The rudder was used to steer left or right, along with the sails.
The rudder directs the yaw to move side to side and left and right.
The rudder is a part of the vertical stabilizer on an aircraft. When desired, it can move to the left, or the right. The rudder sticking out into the wind creates drag, which causes the aircraft to move along the Yaw axis (left to right).
You'd have to know the length of the rudder to start.
they control the plane to go left or right.if a planes ailerons don't work the plane cannot go left or right FOREVER. Not true. Airplanes can (I have done it myself as have many pilots) go left and right by use of the rudder alone but it will be a slow turn to a new heading and the plane will skid sideways during the turn. Also multi engined airplanes having one or two engines, for example, located on either side of the body can do a skid turn by applying more power on one side than on the other.
Airplanes with the aid of radar or simply by the pilot looking outside can navigate around the weather by going around it left, right, above it, below it. In some cases even returning to point of origin. Weather is something pilots monitor constantly.
When you look at a plane side-on. The left-most edge of the rudder attached to the fuselage is the leading edge whilst the right-most edge of the rudder is it's trailing edge.
