Par# A Synopsis o) Force
Force is either a push or a pull.
It can be defined as the external agency that changes or tends to change the state of rest or that of
uniform motion of a body moving in a straight line.
There two types of forces I) contact force II) Field force
The concept of field is important: A field is a region in which the body experiences a force as a result of
the presence of some other body.
The application at a force leads to many changes. A stationary body can be set into motion, both the
speed and direction of a moving body are altered and a body can be deformed.
Newtons first law of motion: If the net force
F
exerted on an obect is !ero, the obect continues in
its original state of motion.
From the "
st
law of motion the concept of inertia was born. The tendency of a body to retain its original
state of motion is called inertia.
A lot of interesting examples can be seen in the day#to#day life. $henever a dusty carpet is er%ed the
