Force
Important Takeaway
Force is a push or pull on an
10N 10N
object.
It is a vector and is measured
in Newtons (N)
This is a balanced (at rest
A Newton is 1Kgm/s2
or moving at a constant
speed)
Net Force 10N 5N
The vector sum of all the
forces acting on an object. In
other words, the total force
Unbalanced (Non-
that affects the objects
Uniform Motion) This
motion. means it will accelerate.
Velocity is changing
Force is a vector that means
DIRECTION matters
Net
force We said that 8N and 2N were

The 8N 5N Forces Net will be +5N
said that 5N was negative because it

2N is pushing left. Imagine it as a
of all number line. The more left you
the push the more negative and the
forces more right you push the more
positive.
