Study Notes
Forces
- A force is a push or a pull that can change an object’s motion
- A push is a force that moves an object away from you.
- A pull is a force that moves an object toward you.
- Balanced forces are equal forces that push or pull in opposite directions, resulting in no movement of the object.
- Unbalanced forces are unequal forces that push or pull in opposite directions, causing the object to move.
- Friction is a force that opposes motion, making it harder for an object to move.
- Gravity is a force that pulls everything towards the center of the Earth.
Motion
- Motion is the change in an object's position.
- A pattern of motion exists when a moving object repeats the same movement over and over again.
Magnets
- All magnets have a North pole and a South pole.
- Magnetic fields are invisible areas around magnets where they can exert forces, affecting other objects.
-
Magnetism can be used to solve various problems:
- Holding objects to a refrigerator
- Picking up small objects from the floor
- Using a compass to determine North
- Iron is an example of a material that is magnetic.
- Magnets do not need to touch an object to affect it.
- Objects with the same magnetic charge repel each other.
- The largest magnet on Earth is the planet itself.
Forces
- A force is a push or a pull.
- A push moves an object away from you.
- A pull moves an object towards you.
- Balanced forces are two equal forces pushing or pulling in opposite directions, resulting in no movement.
- Unbalanced forces are two forces pushing or pulling in opposite directions with one force being greater, resulting in movement.
- Friction is a force resisting the motion of an object.
- Gravity is a force pulling objects towards the Earth.
Motion
- Motion is a change in position of an object.
- A pattern of motion is created when a moving object repeats the same pattern.
Magnets
- All magnets have a north and a south pole.
- Magnets attract and repel objects.
- A magnetic field is the invisible space where a magnet can exert its force.
- Magnets can be used to hold objects, pick up small objects, and determine north with a compass.
- Iron is a magnetic material.
- Magnets don't need to touch an object to apply a force.
- Objects with the same charge repel each other.
- Earth is the biggest magnet on the planet.
