Types of Forces
1. This is an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass.
What is gravity?
11. Forces are drawn as this in a free body diagram.
What is an arrow?
16. A force that can only be applied with touch
What are contact forces?
21. This is the symbol for the normal force.
What is Fn?
2. This force is the result of two surfaces rubbing together.
What is friction?
12. These are the two options on how to draw an object in a free body diagram.
What is a box or a dot?
17. Force that acts on thin, long, flexible objects
What is tension?
22. This is the unit we measure mass in.
What is the applied force?
13. To be complete a free body diagram needs arrows, a box or dot and these.
What are symbols?
18. A force exerted by a compressed or stretched spring upon any object that is attached to it
What is spring force?
23. This is the symbol for tension force
What is Ft?
4. This force acts at a 90 degree angle from where two objects touch.
What is the normal force?
14. This number of forces are acting on a water bottle when it is pushed across a lab bench.
What is four?
19. This is the notation for the force that the earth exerts on you and is directed downwards?
What if Fg?
24. This is the symbol for air resistance.
What is Fair?
5. These are two non-contact forces.
What are the force due to gravity and the magnetic force? (electrical force)
15. If an object is decreasing its speed while traveling to the right, the arrow in this direction needs to be longer.
What is the arrow to the left?
20. This is a force that resists motion between two surfaces that are pressed together.
What is friction?
25. This is the unit of Force.
What is Newton?
