Balanced forces By: jose Mandujano-Perez and Cole Hornsby

2 Balanced force A force is a push or a pull. A force can give energy to an object causing the object to start moving, stop moving, or change its motion. Forces occur in pairs and can be either balanced or unbalanced. Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion. They are equal in size and opposite in direction. For example, if in an arm-wrestling competition, the force between both parties pressing on the others' arm is the same and thus their arms are not moving in any direction, that is a balanced force.

3 Force (examples)

4 Unbalanced forces When balanced forces act on an object at rest, the object will not move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.Dec 4, 2014

5 Unbalanced forces (examples)

6 Net force A net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object. A net force is capable of accelerating a mass. For instance, if the wheels of a car push it forward with 5 Newtons and drag is 3 Newtons , the net force is 2 Newtons , forward.

7 Net force (examples)

8 Inertia a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.

9 Inertia (examples)

10 Gravity he force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account.
