It’s NOT that!

A FORCE is like this…
![Page 5: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A FORCE is simplya PUSH or a PULL.

Here are a few examples of a FORCE…

FORCE is represented using a unit called a NEWTON, which is named after Isaac Newton,
who developed the Laws of Motion.The NEWTON is abbreviated as an “N”.
![Page 15: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What is NET FORCE?
NET FORCE is the result of combining all the forces
exerted on an object.
![Page 16: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Here, you see all these people pulling this large plane. This is a NET FORCE because there is more than one force being applied to move the plane. PULL WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!
![Page 17: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The cheerleaders on the ground are using their combined forces or NET FORCE to throw the one cheerleader up into the air at a spin.
![Page 18: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A Boeing 747, using FOUR jet engines, uses NET FORCE to push its mass into the sky and fly.
A Boeing 747 plane weighs 362,000 pounds!
![Page 19: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The parachute has multiple lines connected to the person and is pulling up from different directions. This NET FORCE that is spread
across the parachute is needed to make it work correctly.

Two people are necessary to lift this couch and move it. Without their NET FORCE, the couch would be too heavy!

(Use NET FORCE and… ) JUST KEEP SWIMMING!

With all FORCES… there are balanced and
unbalanced forces.
![Page 23: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
If FORCES are balanced, then there is NO MOVEMENT.
This monster-truck pull-off isn’t going anywhere!
A magnetic force is pushing the pot up, but the force of gravity is
pulling it down causing it to hover!
A balanced FORCE will have a NET FORCE equal to ZERO.

A balanced FORCE: 11 nails on the head of a single nail!

An example of the mathematics involved that make a balanced FORCE equal to ZERO is shown below…
Let’s say the person pulling on the LEFT is pulling with 100 Newtons of Force…
100 N 100 N
And the person pulling on the RIGHT is also pulling with 100 Newtons of Force…
Because they are pulling equally in OPPOSITE directions, the two forces cancel each other out. This makes for NO MOTION.
100 N – 100 N = 0 Newtons
![Page 26: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Another example of the mathematics involved that make a balanced FORCE equal to ZERO is shown below…
The bison on the LEFT is pushing with 500 Newtons of
Force…
500 N500 N
Because they are pushing equally in OPPOSITE directions, the two forces cancel each other out. This makes for NO MOTION.
500 N – 500 N = 0 Newtons
While the bison on the RIGHT is also pushing with 500 Newtons of Force…
![Page 27: An Introduction To](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816196550346895dd1424e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
If FORCES are unbalanced,then there IS MOVEMENT.
An unbalanced FORCE will have a NET FORCE greater than ZERO.
An F22 Jet takes off using an incredible amount of force!
Don’t play tug of war against a horse!

An example of the mathematics involved that make an unbalanced FORCE greater than ZERO is shown below…
The crane overcomes the force of gravity and makes freight container move by pulling it up.
30100 N – 30000 N = 100 Newtons
The mass multiplied by the gravity of the freight box
gives the it 30000 Newtons of force DOWNWARD.
While the crane pulls with a force of 30100
Newtons UPWARD.

Another example involving an unbalanced FORCE greater than ZERO is shown below…
The force of the kick would definitely overcome the force of gravity sending the soccer ball off hard and fast!
The only force acting on the ball is gravity giving it only about 4.5 Newtons of force DOWNWARD.
While the soccer player kicks with a force of 250 Newtons AT AN ANGLE.
