Concepts Covered in Forces and Motion

 

1. A force is a push or a pull on an object. Each force acts on one particular object.  A force has both a strength and a direction.

2. The net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object. When the net force on an object is zero, the forces are balanced. When the net force on an object is not zero, the forces are unbalanced.

3. Speed is the rate at which an object changes its position. An object at rest typically has multiple forces acting on it, but they add to give zero net force on the object.

4. Motion is the change in the position of an object. Gravity is a force that pulls all objects on Earth down towards Earth’s surface.

 

Here’s an engaging preview of each game aligned with our learning objectives, showcasing their potential to enhance your understanding and skills effectively.
