OUTCOMEBy the end of the lesson you will review your understanding of forces and recognise common forces that act such as weight, friction and the normal force
We are subjected to forces everyday, understanding how to analyse these forces is an integral part of physics
Compression and tension are forces that can act on a body. They are an example of a force pair
Friction is necessary for us to walk, slow down and make music. Imagine a world without friction...
