When is thrust greater than drag?
The object accelerates.
A rocket ship leaves earth's atmosphere. Its Initial velocity is less than its final velocity. What is this an example of?
Reduced atmospheric drag at higher altitudes, Acceleration due to the thrust of the rocket's engine(s).
How do you know if a fraction is more than half?
Double the numerator. If the answer is greater than the denominator then the fraction is greater than half.Double the numerator.

Is -3 greater than three greater than seven?
Is -3 greater than 3 greater than seven
Which is less than and greater than symbols?
Is < Less than or Greater than or > Greater than or Less than
When is thrust greater than drag?
The object accelerates.
What happens if thrust is greater than drag?
The car (or plane/whatever else it is) accelerates. This means that it gains speed
What happens when thrust is greater than drag?
You move!!! * * * * * No, you accelerate!
What happens to the four forces in order to make an airplane fly?
The four basic forces acting on an aircraft are Lift, Weight (Gravity), Thrust, and Drag. In order for an aircraft to ascend, Lift must be greater than Weight, and Thrust must be greater than Drag.
How come an airplane floats in air?
Essentially there are 4 aerodynamic forces that act on an airplane in flight; these are lift, drag, thrust and gravity (or weight).In simple terms, drag is the resistance of air (the backward force), thrust is the power of the airplane's engine (the forward force), lift is the upward force and gravity is the downward force. So for airplanes to fly, the thrust must be greater than the drag and the lift must be greater than the gravity (so as you can see, drag opposes thrust and lift opposes gravity).This is certainly the case when an airplane takes off or climbs. However, when it is in straight and level flight the opposing forces of lift and gravity are balanced. During a descent, gravity exceeds lift and to slow an airplane drag has to overcome thrust.
How does the lift thrust drag and gravity affect a helicopter?
Lift, thrust, drag, and gravity affects all flying objects and wildlife. The blades of the helicopter provide lift, drag and thrust.
Does a hot air balloon depend on thrust or drag?
thrust and drag, because with out thrust the hot air balloon would not be able to move forward and with out drag it would not be able to stop
What causes a force to produce motion?
To move an object forward from rest the thrust of forward force must be greater than the drag acting in the opposite direction. In order to keep moving at a constant velocity the forward force must equal the drag.
What are the four forces that act on an airplane in flight?
Lift, weight, thrust and drag.
What is the opposite of thrust?
Ths is a good question but the opposite of thrust is drag.
What happens when a flying airplane has less thrust than drag?
It will stall and begin to lose altitude.
What helps an airplane overcome drag so it can thrust forward?
Aerodynamics help reduce drag so the engines can produce thrust.
