| LIft | An upward force that opposes gravity. |
| 3rd Law of Motion | For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction |
| Ailerons | Small hinged sections on the outboard portion of a wing |
| Trade-offs | Engineers can improve a system in one area, but by making this improvement it can worsen the system's performance in another area |
| Bernoulli Effect | States that a fast-moving fluid exerts less pressure than a slow-moving fluid |
| 1st Law of Motion | Every object in a state of rest or uniform motion remains in that state unless an external force is applied (also known as inertia) |
| Force | A push or a pull that transfers energy to an object |
| Rudder | A hinged section at the rear of the vertical stabilizer |
| Aerospace | The study of how things fly |
| Newton | A measurement of force |
| Gravity | A force that pulls objects toward the center of the earth |
| Cockpit | Part of the aircraft where the pilot sits |
| Aerodynamics | The study of the forces of air on an object moving through it |
| Friction | A resistance or rubbing action that opposes motion to slow down an object |
| 2nd Law of Motion | The rate of change of momentum of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on it |
| Propulsion | To push forward or drive an object forward |
| Pitch | An up or down movement of the nose of the aircraft |
| Satellites | An artificial body placed in orbit around the earth or moon or another planet in order to collect information or for communication |
