What is Force

What is tension in relation to force?

• The force of gravity on an object

• The force exerted by a moving object

• The force of friction between two surfaces

• Force transmitted through a string, rope, cable, or wire when it is pulled tight

Explain the concept of compression in force.

• Compression in force is the process of converting a solid object into a liquid when a force is applied to it.

• Compression in force refers to the change in color of an object when a force is applied to it.

• The reduction in the size or volume of an object when a force is applied to it.

• The increase in the size or volume of an object when a force is applied to it.

How does tension affect an object?

• It causes the object to become lighter

• It can cause an object to stretch or deform.

• It makes the object more rigid

• It has no effect on the object

Give an example of a situation where compression is applied to an object.

• Eating a sandwich

• Watching TV

• Sitting on a chair

• Walking the dog

What are the differences between tension and compression in force?

• Tension pushes and compression pulls

• Tension pulls or stretches, while compression pushes or squeezes.

• Tension and compression both pull

• Tension and compression both push
