Force and Motion

What is a force?

• The color of an object

• A push or pull that can cause an object to move, stop, or change direction

• The speed of an object

• A type of energy

Give an example of a force in everyday life.

• Love

• Gravity

• Happiness

• Sunshine

What is the difference between a push and a pull?

• Push is a force that moves an object away from the source of the force, while pull is a force that moves an object towards the source of the force.

• Push is a force that moves an object towards the source of the force, while pull is a force that moves an object away from the source of the force.

• Push and pull are the same thing, just different names for the force exerted on an object.

• Push and pull both move an object in the same direction, just with different amounts of force applied.

How does force affect the motion of an object?

• Force can change the speed, direction, or shape of an object's motion.

• Force can make an object disappear

• Force has no effect on the motion of an object

• Force only affects the color of an object

What is Newton's first law of motion?

• An object at rest will start moving on its own

• An object in motion will change direction without any force

• An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

• An object in motion will eventually come to a stop

Explain the concept of inertia in relation to force and motion.

• Inertia is the same as momentum

• Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

• Inertia is the resistance of an object to stay in motion

• Inertia is the force that causes an object to move

What is the formula to calculate force?

• force = mass x acceleration

• force = velocity x time

• force = weight x acceleration

• force = distance / time

What are the different types of forces?

• Heat force, light force, and sound force

• Gravitational force, electromagnetic force, nuclear force, and frictional force

• Frictional force, tension force, and compression force

• Magnetic force, kinetic force, and potential force

How does friction affect motion?

• Friction opposes motion

• Friction creates motion

• Friction has no effect on motion

• Friction increases motion

Explain the concept of balanced and unbalanced forces.

• Balanced forces are unequal in size and direction, resulting in a change in motion. Unbalanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

• Balanced forces are equal in size and direction, resulting in a change in motion. Unbalanced forces are also equal in size and direction, resulting in no change in motion.

• Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in a change in motion. Unbalanced forces are also equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

• Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion. Unbalanced forces are unequal in size and/or direction, resulting in a change in motion.
