1 Forces Any push or pull

2 Forces any push or pull wants to change the motion of an object
has size has direction can change speed can change direction unit is the Newton

3 Newton metric unit of weight = mass x force of gravity
= mass x 9.8 m/sec2

4 Contact vs Non-contact
Contact: there is contact between what is exerting the force and what is receiving the force Non-contact: the result is visible but you cannot see the contact between the force and the agent, example gravity

5 Net Force combination of all of the forces
determined by the directions of the forces shown by vectors

6 Vector arrow attached to the receiver of the force
length = magnitude of the force direction shown by the arrow head →, ↓, ↑, ←

7 Net force Forces in the same direction: add the forces together
Forces in different directions: subtract the smaller force from the larger one

8 Balanced Forces net force = 0 no change in motion
an object at rest will stay at rest

9 Unbalanced Force Net force ≠ 0 change in speed change in direction
object at rest will move object moving might stop
