Forces can make objects start or stop moving, move faster or slower, change the shape of the object or change the direction of the object. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  | Weight is how strongly gravity pulls an object down. This is measured in newtons (N) .\u003Cbr>Mass is how much matter is inside an object. This is measured in grams, kilograms or other similar measurements. If you could travel toa different planet, your mass would stay the same but your weight would change depending on how the gravity of that planet pulled you. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>force | A push or a pull in a particular direction. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>friction | A force between two surfaces that are trying to slide across each other. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  | Gravity Gravity is the force that pulls everything towards the centre of the Earth. Gravity is normally shown by anarrow\u003Cbr>pointing downwards.\u003Cbr>We don’t feel the effect of gravity unless we jump.\u003Cbr>Gravity Friction is a force between surfaces that are trying to slide against each other. In this diagram, gravity is pulling the ball\u003Cbr>downwardsand friction is slowing it down. There is more fiction on a rougher surface and less friction on a smoother surface. This means that an object would\u003Cbr>move more easily on a smooth surface.\u003Cbr>|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>air resistance\u003Cbr>magnetism | A frictional force where air pushes against a moving object.\u003Cbr>When two magnets are close, they create pushing or pulling forces on one another. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  | \u003Cbr>Air Resistance\u003Cbr>Air resistance is a type of friction\u003Cbr>between air and another material.

An example is a shark,\u003Cbr>as it has a sharp, pointed nose which allows water to glide over it. |  |  |  |  | Magnets are rocks or metals which\u003Cbr>have created an invisible field around themselves that attracts magnets and some metals.\u003Cbr>|  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>momentum | A measure of mass in motion. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>water resistance | A frictional force where water pushes against a moving object. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>velocity | The speed of an object plus its direction. |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| \u003Cbr>buoyancy | An upward force that a liquid applies to objects. |  | MAKING LINKS TO PREVIOUS LEARNING\u003Cbr>GOLDEN VOCABULARY |  |  |  |  |  | Pulleys, Gearsand Levers |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Pulleys are used to make a small force life a heavier load.
