INERTIA An object will remain at rest or in constant motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. “THE OLD TABLECLOTH TRICK”
Forces In order to make an object at rest move, you need to apply a push or a pull, otherwise known as a force. A force can make an object: Speed up.
Chapter 12 - Unit 10 Forces and Motion. I. Force A. Is a push or pull B. Can cause objects to change their velocity C. Forces are represented with vectors.
