The video tutorial explains the concept of forces, which are pushes or pulls with strength and direction. It distinguishes between balanced and unbalanced forces, using examples like soccer, golf, and tug-of-war. Balanced forces have equal strength in opposite directions, resulting in no motion change. Unbalanced forces differ in strength, causing motion changes. The video compares these forces and concludes with a summary of their effects.

Which one is correct?

• A push goes away from you and a pull goes towards you.

• A push goes towards you and a pull goes away from you.

• You can only push objects.

• A push is always stronger than a pull.
