Teach Engineering: May the Force Be With You - Lift covers the same topic as NOVA: Lift and Drag
relation created by Caroline Hall

A related interactive tutorial for Grades 6-12 on the aerodynamic forces of lift and drag. It explores why wing shape alone cannot sustain the lift necessary to keep an airplane aloft.

relation created by Caroline Hall

A 5-minute video that explains how modern sailboats are constructed so that lift and drag are produced by the sails and the keel. These force pairs counteract each other to generate forward movement.
