Advance the throttle to the maximum allowable power as in a go-around.

ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Advance the throttle to the maximum allowable power as in a go-around.

Bottom line

The sudden addition of power tends to raise the airplane’s nose and causes left yaw. The pilot should anticipate the need for considerable forward elevator pressure to hold the nose level or in a safe climb attitude. The pilot applies sufficient right rudder pressure to counteract torque and P-factor.
