Forces and newton's law

What is a force?

• An interaction that causes a change in the motion or shape of an object

• A type of energy that remains constant

• A measure of mass

• A form of light

Which of the following is NOT an effect a force can have on an object?

• Change in direction

• Change in shape

• Change in color

What can a force cause in an object?

• Change in speed, direction, and shape

• Change in temperature, color, and size

• Change in mass, volume, and density
