A shuttle is launched into space The shuttle produces a lift force of approximately 10,000N. The resistive force on it is 7,000N. Draw a diagram to represent this. Once the shuttle has escaped the atmosphere, it jettisons its rockets. Explain why the shuttle will carry on moving with a constant velocity at this stage, even though it is no longer generating any force.
