Unbalanced Forces
Forces acting on an object cause a change in its direction because they don't cancel out.
Balanced Forces
Forces acting on an object that cancel each other out.
Pressure Formula
Force / area
One pascal
1 N/m squared
Liquid Pressure Formula
Depth x gravity x height
Centrepital Force
Tension, weight due to gravity, and friction
Gravity Formula
weight / mass
Weight formula
mass x gravity
Friction
A force that slows objects down when it rubs with something else.
Upthrust
A force from water that pushes things up
Air resistance
A force that slows things down when moving through the air.
Stationary
Non-moving
Unit of force
Newton
Weight
A large force of gravity that pulls things towards it, causing this force on an object.
Newton Meter
Used to measure forces.
Lift
The upward force that keeps an aeroplane in the air.
Lubricant
Used to reduce friction
Drag
Air and water resistance can be referred to as this force that pushes things back.
Deceleration
When drag is bigger than weight
Constant speed
No resultant force acting on an object.
Normal Contact Force
The force that exists between any two surfaces in contact with each other.
Tension Force
The force that acts in a direction to return the object to its original shape.
Thrust
The force that is the push of a jet engine. Acts opposite where the blast comes from.
Unpthrust
The force that allows an object to float in a fluid. When and object is under the fluid, the force points towards the top of the fluid.
Force formula
Pressure x area
Area formula
Force / pressure
