INTRODUCTION
01
In our daily life, we experience many
different types of forces. We also
experience something called “Thrust”.
Now, Let’s see about it.
THRUST
02
Let’s see that in the next slide!
THRUST
The force acting on an object perpendicular to
the surface is called thrust. It is the net force
acting in a particular direction. It is always
perpendicular to the surface which the force is
applied.
It is
represented
by the letter
“T”.
SI unit =
Newton
(N)
It is a
vector
quantity

EXAMPLES OF THRUST
03
We will see the daily life
examples of thrust.
EXAMPLES OF THRUST
When we fix pin on a
bulletin board, we apply a
force perpendicular to the
surface of the display board.
When we stand on loose
sand, our body is exerting
on sand by our feet.
Surface of the sand is
horizontal but our feet is
standing vertically on it.
FORMULA OF THRUST
04
Let’s see the formula of thrust
!
FORMULA
Thrust = Mass x Acceleration
=m x a = m x g
Since thrust is also a force, we can say that
Thrust = F = m x g
Thrust = m x g
