Gravity, from the Earth, pulling it towards the ground, and Lift, applied by the air due to pressure difference on the wings (high pressure below the wing, low pressure above the wing). The faster the glider goes, the greater the Lift. Gravity does not change however.

What force act on the ball when it is in the air?
The force that acts on a ball when in the air is gravity.
Which force acts against speed?
Frictional force acts against speed of any object.
What force acts against upthrust?
air resistance
What is the upward force that acts on an object that is falling through the air?
Air resistance.
What forces act on a ball when it is in the air?
The force that acts on a ball when in the air is gravity.
What is an upward force?
It is a force which acts in the upward direction.
What force is there on free falling body neglecting air friction?
The force of gravity is the primary acting force. Air resistance acts in the opposite direction.
How do gliders fly?
Gliders are pulled by a small plane into the air and then the gliders move around catching air currents from the heat.
Is viscous force present in air?
yes, viscous force is present in air. it is proportional to the velocity and area of the body and acts in the opposite direction of velocity.
Which force acts against the motion of an airplane as it flies through the air?
weight
What force acts on a object?
The forces acting on a falling body are gravity and air resistance.
What factors affect the drag force that acts on high speed train?
Air resistant
