Study Notes

Forces and Motions

A force is a push or a pull that causes an object to change its state of motion or shape.
A force has two components: magnitude (amount of force) and direction.

Types of Forces

Magnetic force is a type of force that arises from the interaction of magnets or magnetic fields.

Gravity

Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards each other, and on Earth, it pulls objects towards the ground.
When an object slips off your hand, gravity pulls it down towards the ground.

Friction

Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.
When a ball rolls on a level ground, friction slows it down and eventually brings it to a stop.

External Forces

External forces acting on objects can change their state or state of motion.
Examples of external forces include pushes, pulls, and magnetic forces.

Everyday Applications

When we press a toothpaste tube, the force applied makes the toothpaste come out.
When we place a bar magnet near a magnetic compass, the magnetic force makes the needle move.
