What is the most scientific definition of a force?


Hint: In the words of the great scientist Andy," THe mOre woRd tHe MoRe SCiencey".

a)

A force is the scientific definition of an apple falling on Isaac Newtons head. I'm not sure if it hurt his head, he might of gotten a concussion. If he got a concussion he might of messed up when he was making the three laws of motion, if that happened then gravity might not be real, which would mean that we could float off the earth at this very moment. We all could die.

b)

A push or a pull.

c)

What if Isaac Newton was part of da Illuminati and they made gravity to fool us, because they actually made a bubble around the world and we floated up and now we're standing on the bubble, and when we went to the moon we actually went to da earth.

2.

How does mass effect gravitation?

a)

It doesn't if you drop a elephant and a human from a building they will go splat at the same time.

b)

The greater an objects mass the more gravitational pull.

c)

Mass doesn't matter, speed matters. If you drop a cheetah and a human from a building the cheetah will hit the ground first.

d)

The less mass the more gravitational pull.

3.

What allows water striders to float on water?

a)

water tension

b)

electricity

c)

conduction

4.

Do sand grains have gravitational pull?

a)

No, they are to small.

b)

They don't have enough mass.

c)

Yes, they do. Everything has gravitational pull.

d)

Yes, but their gravitational pull makes static electricity.

5.

What keeps the planets in our solar system in ordit.

a)

Earth's gravitational pull

b)

The asteroid belt

c)

The sun's (Sol's) gravitational pull.

d)

Earth's core

6.

Note: I did not steal this please don't demonetize me.

7.

Two childrens are on a see-saw, kid one is touching the ground but kid too is not! What is this an example of?

a)

Balanced childrens

b)

I don't really care about those children, but I answer FALSE!

8.

What is a balanced force.

a)

Equal forces that act in the same direction.

b)

Equal forces that act in the opposite direction.

c)

unequal forces
