What is a push force?

Back

A push force is a type of force that moves an object away from the source of the force.

What is a pull force?

Back

A pull force is a type of force that draws an object closer to the source of the force.

Front

What factors affect the stopping distance of an object?

Back

The stopping distance of an object is affected by its speed, mass, and the friction between the object and the surface.

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

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is required to lift it due to gravitational pull.

What is the relationship between speed and stopping distance?

Back

Generally, the faster an object is moving, the longer it will take to stop.

Front

What is friction and how does it affect motion?

Back

Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact, affecting how easily an object can be pushed or pulled.

Front

What is the difference between static and kinetic friction?

Back

Static friction acts on objects that are not moving, while kinetic friction acts on objects that are in motion.

Front

What is Newton's second law of motion?

Back

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F=ma).

How can you increase the force applied to an object?

Back

You can increase the force applied to an object by exerting more effort, using tools like levers, or reducing friction.

What is the role of gravity in pushing and pulling objects?

Back

Gravity pulls objects toward the Earth, affecting how much force is needed to push or pull them.
