2.1 Introduction to forces [Page 37]

1. a) Friction, air resistance, tension
b) electrostatic, gravity, magnetic
2. Attraction is a pull and repulsion is push.

Gravity, friction, air resistance, air resistance, gravity,

upthrust.
 The arrows are labelled wrongly.

a) inside the spring balance there is a spring. When a

force is applied the spring stretches and the display
shows how much force has been applied.
b) tension
c) weight is a measure of force and is measured in
newtons. The bananas have a mass of 1kg.
a)friction, air resistance, water resistance, tension,
thrust and upthrust are contact because the forces
act only when the objects are physically in contact
with each other.
b)When something is dropped into water.
c)When a car drives from road to sand
