Summary of the unit on force, motion, and energy
... force is downward (by definition) but we can use the force scale to measure forces in any direction—for example, to determine how hard you have to pull to open a door. In this explanation we use thick and bold arrows to show the direction of forces, as opposed to the lighter and thinner arrows we us ...
