Question

A helicopter has a mass of 4280kg. The helicopter is lifted off the ground with a vertically upward acceleration of 2.030m/s^2. Calculate the vertical force exerted on the rotating blades of the helicopter by the air under the blades.
F up - weight down = m a up
F - 4280*9.81 = 4280 *2.030
