A plane ascends by increasing its engine thrust to generate more lift from its wings. As air flows over the wings, the shape and angle of the wings create a pressure difference which causes the plane to rise. The pilot can also adjust the plane's pitch angle to control the rate of ascent.

What makes the plane go up and down?

Planes control their altitude by changing the angle of the wings. To ascend, the pilot increases engine thrust to generate more lift. To descend, the pilot reduces engine power and adjusts the pitch of the aircraft to decrease lift.

What raises and lowers a plane during flight?

It depends on your airspeed. At normal cruise airspeed, an increase or decrease of engine thrust causes an aircraft to ascend or descend. At approach airspeed, a slower airspeed with flaps lowered, raising or lowering the elevators causes the aircraft to ascend or descend.


Are stairs an inclined plane?

Yes, stairs can be considered a series of inclined planes. Each step creates a small incline that allows individuals to ascend or descend at a more manageable angle compared to a steeper incline.


What inclined plane is similar to stairs but requires less effort?

A ramp is an inclined plane similar to stairs but requires less effort to ascend or descend. It provides a gradual slope for easier movement of objects or individuals compared to the vertical movement of stairs.

Does lift have to be more than the weight of the plane?

Yes, for an airplane to ascend, the lift must exceed its weight. However, during level flight, lift is equal to the weight of the plane. In descent, lift can be less than the weight, allowing the airplane to descend smoothly.
