WHAT IS FORCE?
Apush or pull upon an object resulting
from the object’s interaction with another
object.
Measured in units of Newton (N) which is
equivalent to the unit kg·m/s².
It is named after SIR ISAAC NEWTON.
PUSH PULL
3.
WHAT CAN FORCEDO?
A force can make an object move.
A force can change the direction of a moving
object.
A force can make a moving object to speed up.
A force can stop a moving object.
A force can change the shape of an object.

• Frictional
• Air Resistance
Contact
Force
Is a type of force that needs the
objects to touch for the force to
work.
Two interacting objects are
physically in contact with each
other.
6.
• Gravitational
• Magnetic
•Electrostatic
Non-Contact Force
Is a type of force that can
happen without the objects
touching.
Two interacting objects are
not in physical contact with
each other, but are able to
exert a push or pull despite
the physical separation.
7.
Applied Force
Force whichis applied to an object
by another object or by a person.
Tensional Force or Tension
Force which is transmitted through a string,
rope or wire when it is pulled tight by forces
acting at each end.
Directed along the wire and pulls equally on
the objects on either end of the wire
8.
Normal Force
Support forceexerted upon an object which is
in contact with another stable object
Frictional Force
Force exerted by a surface as an object
moves across it or makes an effort to
move across it
Opposes the motion of the object
Varies directly with load
Independent of surface area
9.
Special typeof frictional force
which acts upon objects as
they travel through the air
Always opposes the motion of
the object
Depends on surface area of
object
Air Resistance
10.
Gravitational Force
Force withwhich the earth, moon, or
other massive body attracts an object
towards itself
Equal to the weight of the object as given
by the equation:
-gravitational force (weight)
-mass
-acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s²)
11.
Mass- amount ofmatter that is
contained by the object in units
of kilograms (kg)
Weight
Force of gravity acting upon
an object in units of newton
(N)
Change depending on location
12.
Magnetic Force
The pushor pull exerted by a
magnet.
Electrostatic force
The force that exist between all
charged particles
