It can lift up to 20,000 lbs or 9000 kilos.
3,000,000 cents
The same force as the weight of the helicopter and its crew and cargo.
A helicopter cannot reach a plane's altitude because it does not have much lift. No, the air is to thin high up for a helicopter to sustain flight.
it all depends on how big the helicopter is and what brand it is, if its just a cehap one from walmart it probably wouldn't lift much

Helicopters require air for lift, and the moon has no atmosphere. Additionally, the moon's gravity is much weaker than Earth's, which would make it difficult for a helicopter to generate lift and stay airborne.
It depends on the helicopter. The Russian Mil-26 is the largest heavy lifter at the moment, it can lift almost 23 tons. There is one in northern Canada at the moment to lift mining vehicles into a remote, mountainous valley. -The US Army has also used the MIl-26 to recover crashed Chinooks in Afghanistan. It is the only helicopter that can lift a whole Chinook.
The rotating blades are angled in the same direction (at about 35 degrees) and spin fast enough for the air pressure beneath the helicopter to be higher than above so much so that the helicopter lifts off.
Helicopter 'lift' is provided by the rotor blades creating lift. A fixed wing aircraft creates lift by moving the aircraft forward to create a pressure differential between the upper and lower surfaces of the wing. Power required from the engine to a propeller to move the aircraft forward (on wheels) to gain sufficient speed is much less than lifting the 'dead' weight of a helicopter.
sorry folks, its 12 cms
Not much at all. The Apache is an attack helicopter, not a cargo mover.
