Forces and Force Diagrams

What is Balanced Force?

• Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

• Forces that are unequal in size and direction, causing an object to accelerate.

• Forces that act in the same direction, increasing the speed of an object.

• Forces that are always present in a moving object, regardless of its speed.

What is the role of gravity in force diagrams?

• Gravity is represented as a downward force, affecting the weight of the object and its interaction with other forces.

• Gravity is represented as an upward force, counteracting other forces in the diagram.

• Gravity has no effect on force diagrams and is not represented.

• Gravity is represented as a lateral force, influencing the object's motion horizontally.

What is the Normal Force?

• The force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth.

• The support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object, acting perpendicular to the surface.

• The force that opposes the motion of an object in a fluid.

• The gravitational force acting on an object.

What happens when the net force on an object is zero?

• The object accelerates in the direction of the net force.

• The object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.

• The object experiences an increase in speed.

• The object changes direction suddenly.

What is a Force Diagram?

• A graphical representation showing all the forces acting on an object, including their direction and magnitude.

• A diagram that illustrates the motion of an object over time.

• A chart that lists all the forces in a system without their directions.

• A visual representation of energy transformations in a system.

What is Tension Force?

• A force that acts on an object in motion

• The force transmitted through a string, rope, or cable when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends.

• A force that opposes the motion of an object

• The force exerted by a surface to support the weight of an object resting on it.

What is Unbalanced Force?

• Unbalanced Forces are equal and opposite forces that do not cause any change in motion.

• Unbalanced Forces are forces that are not equal and opposite, causing a change in the motion of an object.

• Unbalanced Forces are forces that always act in the same direction, increasing speed.

• Unbalanced Forces are forces that cancel each other out, resulting in no motion.

What is Friction Force?

• Friction Force is the force that opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact.

• Friction Force is the force that accelerates two surfaces in contact.

• Friction Force is the force that increases the speed of an object in motion.

• Friction Force is the force that reduces the temperature of two surfaces in contact.

What is Push/Pull Force?

• A force that only pushes objects away from the source.

• A force that only pulls objects towards the source.

• Push/Pull Force refers to the force applied to an object to move it away from or towards the source of the force.

• A force that has no effect on the motion of an object.

What is Gravitational Force?

• A force that repels two masses from each other.

• An attractive force between two masses, such as the Earth and an object.

• A force that only acts on objects in motion.

• A force that is only relevant in outer space.
