Basic Forces
A push or pull between two objects that has both strength and direction, making this move or change direction.
What is a force
A change in the position of an object
What is motion
The act of applying force to move something away
What is a push
A concept or idea that can be tested by research, experiment, or observation
Two or more forces acting on an object in different directions with equal strength, resulting in no change in position, direction, or motion
What is equal forces?
The place where something is located or where something has been put.
What is position?
Information describing what was learned from an investigation based on observations and collected data
What is a conclusion
Forces acting on an object in different directions that are not the same strength, resulting in a change in position, direction, or motion.
What is unequal forces?
What is mechanical energy?
A pulling force that pulls objects down closer to Earth's surface
What is gravity
What is an independent variable
A force that acts in the opposite direction to movement, acting as a stopping force
What is friction?
The process by which energy is relocated or moved from one system to another.
A force that pulls magnetic material across a distance
What is magnetism
A fair test in which variables are manipulated, controlled, and measured to gather evidence to support or not support a hypothesis
What is an experimental investigation?
