Everywhere around you will find forces at work. Even if nothing seems to be happening, forces are still pushing and pulling. Even when reading this sentence there are forces at work. Examples would be the muscles you use to move your eyes and the force of the chair against your body that prevents you from going through it. There are also forces needed to generate the electricity for your computer.
Forces are invisible; they have an amount of power, a direction and a point
of action. Forces impact an object. Even when forces balance out, an object can still be in motion.When an external power impacts a balanced object, something happens with that object: it changes direction, accelerates/decelerate or changes form.
Your assignment is conducting a research in which you design and create an object that changes under the influence of force.
You can come up with your own research topic other than the topics listed below.
- Acceleration/Deceleration
- Changes in Form
- Friction
- Changes in Direction
