Although the helicopter has exerted a force (through the use of its rotors) to lift it straight up, it hasn't exerted a force in the horizontal direction to counter the momentum it already had from the earths revolutions.

Physics is a wonderful and strange subject.

Theres a bridge that can hold a weight of 5 tonne.

A lorry is travelling towards the bridge. The lorry weighs 5 tonne. It is carrying 1 tonne worth of doves. (Alot of doves I know).

If all the doves fly around the carriage will the lorry get over the bridge??
