Force Notes
Force
• Force = push or pull
• can cause an object to
start/stop moving or
change direction
• described by how strong
and in what direction the
force is moving
Types of Force
1. Contact Force –
when 2 objects are
touching
Types of Force
2. Friction – force when 2
objects rub against each
other in opposite
directions
• slows objects down or
makes objects move
Types of Force
3. Gravitational
Force – acts
between 2 objects
(gravity)
Types of Force
4. Magnetic
Force –
attraction
between metals
Types of Force
5. Electrical Force –
charged parts of
atoms react to
each other
Forces
• Unbalanced Force –
when several forces
act on an object
• WILL change the
object’s position
Force
• Balanced Force –
forces are equal in
opposite directions
• NO change in position
Forces
•Net Force = all
the forces
acting on an
object
