Different objects around you are
moving. An object is said to be
moving when it changes its
position. Objects that are not
moving are at rest.
Have you been to an amusement
park? You will see different kinds of
rides in an amusement park. Some
rides may be moving fast. Other
rides may be moving slow. The
movement of each ride depends on
the amount of force applied to it.

 There are different materials that exert force
too. Magnets pull metal objects. The
spinning of electric fan creates wind. The

 Aside from force, electricity can make an
object move too. Electricity is a form of
energy. Energy is the ability to do work. If

EXPLAIN
an object possess energy, it will be able to
do work and move. Most appliances are
working because of electricity.

Why should you
use or apply
force properly?
For what reason do things fall down
when you throw them or drop them?
Gravity is a force that pulls objects
toward one another. Earth's gravity is
the thing that keeps you on the ground
and what makes things fall. We couldn't
live on Earth without gravity. The sun's
gravity allows Earth in orbit around it,
keeping us at a comfortable distance to
appreciate the daylight and warmth. It
holds down our environment and the air
we have to breath. Gravity is the thing
that holds our world together.
