1.When a baseball pitcher throws a curveball, he or she puts top-spin on the ball. This causes the ball to interact with the passing air in such a way as to make the air push the ball downward perpendicular to the ball’s velocity. (This causes the ball to dive sharply as it approaches the plate, making it quite difficult to hit.) We would classify this force as a “lift” force on the ball.
