If all other factors were kept the same, what would happen if the weight in this plane were significantly increased?
The plane would have negative acceleration, because the drag would increase
The plane would have positive acceleration upward, because the lift would become greater than the drag
The plane would have positive acceleration downward, because the weight would become greater than the lift
The plane would have positive acceleration forward, because the thrust would become greater than the drag
