Force is pushing and pulling things. This
forces are called contact forces because
they require touch.
PUSHING

PULLING
Contact forces can also stop things.
Contact forces can make an object start
moving, stop moving, move faster, move
slower or change direction.

The children apply a force
to make their bicycles go
faster.

The dog applies a
force to stop the
ball.

The crane applies a
force to lift the car.
Contact forces can change the shape of some
objects. They can also break them.
Depending on the force applied
and the material of the object, it...
…breaks.

…changes shape but
returns to its original
shape when the force
is removed.

…changes shape
forever.
…doesn’t change
shape.
Magnets create magnetic forces. They
are non-contact forces.
Magnets attract metallic objects and make
them move without touching them.
There are natural
magnets, like
magntetite, and
man-made
magnets.
All magnets have 2 ends, called the north
pole and the south pole.
If we put
opposite
poles of
magnets
together,
the attract
each other.

If we put
same poles
of magnets
together,
they repel
each other.
Many products of our daily life have
magnets.
A compass uses
a magnet to find
north.

Magnets are
used in watches.

Bank cards have a
magnetic band.
Gravity is a non-contact force. It is a force
of attraction that pulls all objects towards
the centre of the Earth.
The Earth’s
gravity stops us
from floating
away. It makes
rain fall and
keeps the water
in the oceans.
Because of gravity...
...we
stay on
the
ground

...everything that goes up
comes back down.

...the
apple
falls on
the
boy’s
head.

...we
can’t lift
objects
with a
large
mass.
As you move away from the Earth, the
force of gravity is weaker. In space there is
so little gravity that people and objects
float!

Energy is the ability to do work. Any change
needs energy.
All living things need energy to live.
Machines and tools use energy to work.
