What is the definition of force in physics?

Back

A force is a push or pull acting upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object.

Front

What is the difference between a push and a pull?

Back

A push moves an object away from the source of the force, while a pull brings an object closer to the source of the force.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass are brought toward one another, commonly experienced as a pull towards the center of the Earth.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force (F) is calculated using the formula F = mass (m) × acceleration (a).

Front

What is the concept of position in physics?

Back

Position refers to the location of an object in space relative to a reference point.

Front

How does mass affect the amount of force needed to move an object?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is required to move it, according to Newton's second law of motion.

Front

What is the relationship between force and motion?

Back

Force causes an object to change its state of motion, either by starting to move, stopping, or changing direction.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion; an object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the difference between balanced and unbalanced forces?

Back

Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion, while unbalanced forces result in a change in motion.

Front

What is an example of a pull force?

Back

An example of a pull force is when you pull a wagon towards you.
