Forces and Energy

Study Slideshow

A comparison between two things to explain an idea in Science (example: comparing balanced forces to a tug of war where no team moves)

Analogy

When forces acting on an object are equal in size but opposite in direction, so there is no change in motion.

Balanced

What happens to an object when an unbalanced force pushes or pulls it sideways

Change direction

The line or path along which something moves, points, or faces.

Direction

A push or a pull that can change the speed, direction, or shape of an object.

Force

Acting against each other; facing in a completely different direction.

Opposite

What happens when unbalanced forces act opposite to the motion of an object.

Slow down

What happens when unbalanced forces act in the same direction as the motion of an object.

speed up

When forces acting on an object are not equal, causing a change in motion (speed up, slow down, or change direction).
