ForcesForcesA force is a push or a pull upon an object
Contact forces - two objects in contact with each other
Non-contact forces - a force that acts over a distance
A force is a push or a pull upon an object
Contact forces - two objects in contact with each other
Non-contact forces - a force that acts over a distance
Gravity - non-contact forceFriction (via brake discs) - contact force
ArrowsArrows Arrows are drawn to represent forces
These arrows always work in pairs - if there is a force one way, there will be an opposite force the other way
The bigger the arrow, the bigger the force
Look at the following, and see if you can decide where the force arrows should be…

Types Of ForceTypes Of Force
• Gravitational Force - acting straight downwards• Magnetic Force - push / pull exerted by a magnet• Electrical Force - a force between two charged objects• Reaction Force - force from the surface, usually acting straight
upwards• Contact Force (push / pull forces) - force which results in the object
speeding up, for example, due to an engine / rocket• Friction - friction between surfaces slowing an object down. This can
include air resistance - (special type of frictional force) where air in the atmosphere slows down a moving object
• Tension Force - pulling of a rope / cable from opposite ends • Elastic Force - compression / extension of a spring or elastic product

Look at the diagram of the stationary car, car at steady speed, and accelerating car
How can we draw force arrows to represent this?

To work out the speed of an object, we need to know two things: The distance it has traveled The time taken to travel that distance
The equation needed is
Speed = Distance

ExamplesExamples
Jack ran 100m in 12 seconds. What speed was he traveling at?
Jack then ran 100m again, but this time it was much more windy, and it took him 15 seconds. What was his new speed, and why was this different?
My car was going at 50mph for 1 hour. How many miles did I travel
My car was going at 50mph, and I traveled 20 miles. How long did this take me?

ExamplesExamples Jack ran 100m in 12 seconds. What speed was he traveling at?
Speed = 100 12 = 8.34m/s
Jack then ran 100m again, but this time it was much more windy, and it took him 15 seconds. What was his new speed, and why was this different?
Speed = 100 15 = 6.67m/s (more air resistance)
My car was going at 50mph for 1 hour. How many miles did I travel
Distance = 50 x 1 = 50 miles
My car was going at 50mph, and I traveled 20 miles. How long did this take me?
Time = 20 50 = 0.4 hours (24 minutes)

Speed ExperimentSpeed Experiment Your task is to work out how your speed can vary - you
are going to travel a distance of 20m by: - Running Walking Skipping Jumping Backwards
You’ll need to time how long it takes you to cover this distance, so when we return we can work out your speed
Speed = Distance Time
