What are forces?

Forces affect the movement or

shape of an object. They can
make an object start to move,
stop moving, move faster or
move more slowly. They
could also make an object
change its shape or cause a
moving object to change
direction. What is the name of the force
pulling the skydivers down?
What are forces?

Gravity is a pulling force gravity

exerted by the Earth. The
gravitational force from the
Earth pulls in a direction
towards the centre of the
Earth.
Gravity is pulling the
skydivers towards the Earth.
What are forces?

In this image, you can see

that a force is slowing the
skydivers down.

This force is pushing in the

opposite direction to gravity.

Talk to your partner about

what is happening in this
picture.
What are forces?

Air resistance is the name of the

force that is pushing up against the
parachute.

Gravity is pulling the skydivers

towards the ground. However, they
are slowed down because a force
(air resistance) pushes against the
inside of the parachute and they
descend more slowly.

Gravity and air resistance are air resistance

opposing forces in this situation. gravity

Forces – Mass and Weight
New Learning Area: Weight and Mass

Remember

Mass is how much matter (or

‘stuff’) is inside an object. It is
measured in kilograms (kg).

Weight is how strongly gravity is

pulling an object down. It is measured
in newtons (N).
Weight and Mass – Science Book Page 112-113
Forces – Weightlessness – The International Space Station
New Learning Area: Weight and Mass

Gravity on Earth has a value of 9.8 newtons/kg

of mass, which is a measure of how strong
gravity is at the surface of the Earth.

So, to calculate the weight (in newtons) of an

object you multiply its mass (in kg) by 9.8.

 Float
What an object does when
the volume of water it
displaces CAN support it.
The boat, supported by the buoyant force, stays
on the surface, even though gravity is pulling it
down.
 Displace
To take something’s
position or space
The boy displaces the water.
Volume Water volume (13 units) + (17 units) = 30 units of space occupied.

The amount of
space that a liquid,
solid or gas
occupies. The water occupies
13 units of space.
The rock occupies
17 units of space.
 Sink
What an object does when
the volume of water it
The boat falls through the surface as gravity
displaces cannot support
pulls it down. it.
 Buoyant Force
A push exerted by Duck

the volume of water

an object displaces.
