Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. What Is a Force? A force is a push or pull.... acts on an object.... requires an agent.... is a vector.... is a contact force or a long-range force. Slide 4-10

Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. System Schema Draw a diagram where you write down the name of each object in the system and then draw a solid circle drawn around it. Draw two sided arrows like this between the object circles of objects that interact (This illustrates all interactions between the objects in this diagram). Draw an additional dotted line around the block to indicate it is the object of interest. This diagram is called a system schema. A system schema illustrates all the relevant interactions between the objects in a given physical situation
Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Newton's First Law of Motion Every object continues in a state of rest or a state of motion with a constant speed in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
