Forces

Force
A force is a push or pull. If an object accelerates (speeds
up, slows down, or turns), a force is acting upon it.
The total force felt by an object is called the net force.
Some force are not visible (i.e. gravity, magnetism or
earths gravitational field).
Balanced forces are two or more forces that cancel out
each others effects and do not cause a change in
motion. Net force equals zero.
Unbalanced forces exceed zero and therefore cause
motion.

Because the plane is moving forward,
thrust is greater than the force
