Forces

SYMBOL: F

UNITS: newtons (N)

Forces are pushes, pulls and twists. We represent forces with an arrow. The larger the arrow, the larger the force. The arrowhead shows the direction of the force.

The behaviour of forces is described by Newton's Laws of Motion.We will explore the first two in the next few blog posts.
