20 Forces Force - Anything that produces motion or stops an object in motion

21 Newton’s first law of motion
An object at rest will remain at rest, an object at motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by another force.

22 Gravity The force which pulls objects together. This is anything with mass.

23 Tension A pulling force produced on an object when a pair of forces move in opposite directions

24 Compression A crushing force produced on an object when a pair of forces move toward each other

25 Shearing A cutting force produced when a pair of forces moving towards an object just miss each other.

26 Torsion (Torque) A twisting force on an object when a pair of forces rotate away from each other. Example: Opening a soda bottle

27 Compression Shearing Tension Torsion

28 Identify the Force COMPRESSION

29 Identify the Force TORSION

30 Identify the Force TENSION

31 Identify the Force SHEARING

32 Building with Shapes COMPRESSION FAILURE Circle

33 Building with Shapes TENSION COMPRESSION Square

34 Building with Shapes SHEARING FAILURE Triangle

35 Building with Shapes TORSION I-Beam

36 Building with Shapes TORSION I-Beam

37 Truss A triangular shape structure used by engineers because of its proven strength.
