Any driving force that allows the object to move in any direction.
propulsion
water resistance
air resistance
friction
This is a force that acts in water, it can slow objects down, reducing the effect of gravity.
propulsion
water resistance
air resistance
friction
This is a force that acts in the air, it can slow objects down when they are moving against it. Or if harnessed could be used to move an object along.
propulsion
water resistance
air resistance
friction
This force affects every object on Earth. It is a force that pulls everything to the center of the earth.
air resistance
friction
gravity
upthrust
This is an upward force that acts in water, it acts on an object against gravity, and is why certain objects float.
air resistance
friction
gravity
upthrust
A force between two surfaces that are sliding, or trying to slide across one another
gravity
propulsion
friction
