Force (Introduction)

A force is an interaction between objects.

What can forces do?

It can change its speed, cause it to move, stop, change shape, push, pull and so on. Forces basically affect matter and objects.

Measuring forces

Unit: N (Newtons) Newtons is the measurement of force. 10N basically means 10N of force. Since force is a vector quantity (has a direction), a complete description would be something like "pushing the truck with a force of 100N forward". So what exactly are Newtons? Forces make a particular object change,

and Newtons are defined as this: 1 N = 1kg*m/s^2

Which means the amount of force needed for 1 kg of mass to accelerate for 1 m/s^2.
