Types of Forces

Any object with mass.

Any object that carries a positive or negative charge.

Any object that is made from a magnetic material.

Any object that is already in motion

The cards use a magnetic strip that can be affected by the magnet.

The magnet will discolor the card.

The magnet can magnetize the card, causing it to become a magnet.

The cards will not be affected by the magnet.

Earth is a magnet that attracts all negatively charged objects, like the compass.

Both Earth and a compass are magnets, and the compass aligns with Earth's magnetic field.

The needle of the compass is a magnet which is a north pole pointing to Earth's South Pole.

The needle of the compass is a magnet, which is a south pole pointing to Earth's North Pole.

Only objects that are made from a a magnetic material will be affected.

Only objects that carry a positive or negative charge will be affected.

Any object with mass will be affected.

Only objects that are electrically neutral will be affected.

It is a field generated by any charged object.

It is a field generated by any object in motion.

It is a field generated by any object with a mass.

It is a field generated by any two objects touching each other.

a neutral

a negative

a positive

The sun.

The moon.

Earth’s mass.

Earth’s atmosphere.

Potential energy.

Electromagnetic energy.

Gravitational force.

Electromagnetic force.

bowling balls.

school buses.

skateboards.

refrigerators.

Objects on Earth are orbiting the Sun too quickly.

Objects on Earth have too little mass on which to pull.

Objects on Earth are influenced more by the gravity of Earth than by the gravity of the Sun.

Objects on Earth are held by the gravity of the Moon.

Lower gravitational pull creates more mass.

Higher gravitational pull creates more mass.

Lower mass creates higher gravitational pull.

Higher mass creates higher gravitational pull.
