Forces

Pull

Contact Forces

Push

Friction

Twist

Non-contact Forces

Magnetism

Gravity

Electrostatic

Eplanation: a force that occurs when one object being moved rubs on another object.

Facts and Characteristics: Friction usuallly creates heat, it is the force of the weight an object pressing into the ground, the version of friction while in the air is called air resistance or drag.

Example: Rubbing your hand on teh carpet with force

Friction

Normal

Explanation: Moving something from behind, sometimes bending or snapping it.

Facts and Charracteristics: Pushing things on the ground causes friction. normal and gravitational forces push against each other. Different forces use the push force.

Example: pushing a wardrobe to another place.

Push

Observation: just touching something is technically pushing it.

Example: When you jump and fall down

Explanation: the force that pulls you down until there is an upwards force e.g: the ground. that counteracts it

Example: When you rub a balloon on your hair and it stands up.

Example: holding a magnet near. an iron filing

Explanation: the force that attracts ferromagnetic item such as nickel, cobalt and iron towards the emitter of the magnetic field.

Magnets

observation: Only ferromagnetic metals get attracted to magnets

Facts, Attributeds and Charateristics:


Two of the same poles repel each other, while two opposite poles attract each other.


If you split a magnet between it's poles, it becomes a new magnet and creates a new north or south pole where they were seperated. they cannot be put back together.

Observation from questions: the further away the object the gravity is affecting, the weaker the pull of the gravity.

Gravity Representation

Facts and Characteristics: everything has something of a gravitational pull, even a human or the tiniest caterpillar, when you jump, the gravity that you emit pulls the earth towards you, as well as you to it.

Example: opening a bottle of soft drink

Explanation: rotating an object around a point that doesn't move.

Bottle Cap

Observations from Questions: twisting isn't actually a force. when you twist, you are pushing and pulling the object rexcept it doesn't move because you are fixing or it is fixed into or onto another surface

Characteristics and Facts: Twisting is also called torsion, the object must revolve around a stationary base, and the further away the object you're twisting reaches, the faster it will whip back around (if it is supposed to do that)

electrostatic force

explanation: the force of electricity and charge. two light objects may release charge between each other and share their charge.

Characteristics and facts: after bouncing on a trampoline or creating electrostatic force on your body, if you touch something, you may give them a tiny electric shock that hurts a little. lighning is a discharge of electrostatic force from the clouds creating electrostatic force.

Example: a human standing on the ground, not falling through the earth

Explanation: The force that a surface emits that resists the force of gravity so you don't just keep falling. normal force is the force that lets you stand up.

Normal force

Facts and Characteristics: If there is no ground under you, there is no normal force, which lets gravity accelerate you downwards. the normal force resists gravity so you can stand up, and the feeling of the ground under you is the normal force pushing against gravity

Explanation: Moving something from in front of it.

Example: Opening a door from the 'pull' side

Facts and Characteristics: if you move something from behind, you are pushing, pushing and pulling are exact opposites, when you twist something towards you, you are pulling a fixed object.

Observations from Questions: The non-contact forces are kind of pull forces, because they pull items without touching them, so they are kind of 'pull' forces.
