What are forces?
A force is a push or pull that causes a change in speed, direction or shape.
Some forces are affected by speed, other forces are not.
All forces come in pairs, no force exists by itself.
3
THRUST
This can be any driving force, it may be a push or pull, but it could be an engine which forces an object forward.
4
Lift
This is the force required to raise an object through a fluid
5
Air Resistance
This is a force which acts in the air, it can slow objects down when they are moving against it. Or if harnessed could be used to move an object along.
6
Friction
This force acts on objects when they are in contact with a surface, such as the ground. It can be reduced by ensuring both surfaces are smooth.
7
Gravity
This force affects every object on Earth. It is a force which pulls everything to the centre of the Earth.
8
Upthrust
This is an upward force which acts in water, it acts on an object against gravity and is why certain objects float.
