Energy is always required for acceleration, to overcome air drag, as well as rolling and friction resistance of wheels on road and rail, and for “lifting work”, i.e., working against gravity. It must be noted that energy to overcome air drag is only required when the movement takes place in an atmospheric environment.

As they were already at take-off speed and with most of the runway behind them, the crew continued in hopes of getting the aircraft into the air. Eventually, the video shows the Boeing gain enough airspeed to lift off and climb away. This transition of lifting off is called rotation.

The Pilot Flying gently applies back pressure on the control column, pitching the aircraft nose up to transition from rolling on the ground to flying in the air. This transition of lifting off is called rotation. These V-speeds need to be calculated for every flight. The key take-off speeds are V 1 , V 2 and V R.
