A force is a push or pull acting on an object that changes the motion of the object. PUSH
PULL
Forces and Motion
Types of Forces
Contact Force – Forces that act through objects direct contact beteen to Applied Forces! Forces! Friction
Long "ange Forces – Forces that can act o#er distances
$ra#it%! &lectromagnetic Force '&MF(
Types of Forces
FRICTION )t
is the *ind of force that stops or slos
things don. us from slipping or falling {It prevents down}
)t is caused hen to objects rub together.
FRICTION Friction
beteen the tires
of a car + the road. Friction
beteen the bottom of %our snea*ers + the ground.
GRAVITY )t
is the force that pull
objects earth. don toards the As the mass of the object becomes larger! the force of gra#it% becomes stronger.
APPLIED FORCES
a
force that is applied to an object b% a person or another object. )f a person is pushing a des* across
the room! then there is an applied force acting upon the object.
Motion
What is motion?
A change in the position of an object over time.
How do you know something is in motion or has moved?
You use a reference point! A stationary not moving object
such as a tree" street sign" or a #ine on the road.

Position, Direction, and Speed
Force and Motion
How do objects move?
Up and down moton Ex. See saw
Round and Sraigh line

Ex. Merry go

Back and forh moton Ex. Swing
Position
The position of an object is its location relative to another object
(the reference point). Example “above”, “below”, “beside”, “behind”, “ahead of”
e plus the distance from the other The distanc (length) object. from the reference point
changes
, La - bjects at rest st
)f an unbalanced force acts on an object at rest the object ill mo#e in the direction of the force. A stronger fforce orce 'push or pull( ill ma*e it mo#e faster.
Point of Reference
A stationar% lo location cation in hich the motion is measured. Point of reference is something that is considered fi/ed and used as a comparison. Motion #er% dependent on point of reference
Direction
of motion is the course or path that an object Direction
is mo#ing and can be determined b% reading a compass using the terms 0north1! 0south1! 0east1! or 0est.1 2irection can also be described using the terms 0right1! or 0left!1 0forard!1 or 0toard1 relati#e to another object! or 0up1! or 0don1 relati#e to &arth.
The direction of the force:
Singing the golf club to the 3ic*ing the ball to the front right .
Pulling the draer out.
4ossing a coin upard
The direction of the force:
Pushing the cart heel to the 3ic*ing the ball to the front left. .
Pulling Pulli ng the draer out.
4ossing a coin upard
Speed A measure of ho fast an object is mo#ing.
bjects mo#e at different speeds.
Speed is ho fast something mo#es.
5oth of theses objects are mo#ing
6hich one is mo#ing faster7
Things a! o"e in different #a!s$
An object ma% ma% mo#e in a straight path. 8
)t ma% mo#e in a cur#ed path.
)t ma% go in a circle
)t ma% e#en mo#e in a 9ig9ag.
The direction of the force:
Pushing the table to the right.
Pulling the draer out.
Pushing the stroller to the left.
Balanced and Unbalanced forces
Mrs. &
April :; Forces and Motion
Unbalanced forces change the rate and direction of the motion of objects.
everal forces can act on an object at the same time. ometimes forces are balanced which means that the! are e"ual in strength but opposite in direction. #alanced forces do not change the motion of objects onl! unbalanced forces cause changes in motion.
$n unbalanced force is one that does not have another force of e"ual magnitude and opposite direction o%& setting it. Rate of motion is the speed of the object or how fast or slow the object is moving. 'nbalanced forces can change the rate or direction of motion of an object in di%erent wa!s
