• Lift

• Drag

• Gravational

• Weight

When Ms. Howell goes to the airport she usually walks really fast. But, sometimes if she has really heavy luggage, she slows down a lot because of this force...

• Gravitational

• Drag

• Lift

• Thrust

When a plane is taking off on the runway, it needs a lot of this force...

• Drag

• Lift

• Weight

• Thrust

Draw and label arrows showing the 4 forces on the plane below
