What is the force that acts in the opposite direction of lift?
The force that acts in the opposite direction of lift is weight, which is the force exerted by gravity pulling the object downward. It acts vertically downward from the center of mass of the object.
What is the relationship between the 4 forces of flight?
Lift is opposite of weight Thrust is opposite drag. When lift >weight plane climbs. If lift < weight you best find a place to land. If thrust> drag you accelerate. If drag>thrust you slow down. High and fast are your friends. Low and slow are out to kill you.

When you are in an aeroplane does lift act in the opposite direction to friction?
No, lift acts perpendicular to the direction of the airflow over the wings, providing an upward force. Friction, on the other hand, acts parallel to the direction of motion and opposes the movement of the airplane through the air.
Which law explains how rockets lift off from the ground?
Newton's third law of motion explains how rockets lift off from the ground. The law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that as the rocket propels exhaust gases downward, the rocket is propelled upward in the opposite direction.
Why do the ailerons move in opposite directions?
The ailerons move in opposite directions to create a rolling motion when an aircraft turns. As one aileron moves up to increase lift on that side, the other aileron moves down to decrease lift, causing the aircraft to roll in the desired direction. This differential lift helps control the bank angle of the aircraft during turning maneuvers.
A rocket receives lift off due to?
A rocket is able to lift off because of something called thrust. This means if you apply force to one direction, it will also apply force to the opposite direction.
When you use a crowbar to lift a large rock you are working against the force called?
When using a crowbar to lift a large rock, you are working against the force of gravity. Gravity is pulling the rock downward towards the Earth, and you are exerting force in the opposite direction to lift it.
