Force — definition?
An external agent that changes motion or rest.
Contact forces — example?
Normal force exerted by surfaces.
Newton’s First Law — principle?
An object stays at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon.
F = ma — meaning?
Force equals mass times acceleration.
Third Law — statement?
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Friction — types?
Static and kinetic friction.
Static friction — role?
Prevents initial movement of surfaces.
Equilibrium — condition?
Net force and torque are zero.
Field forces — example?
Gravitational force acts at a distance.
Fundamental forces — examples?
Strong nuclear, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, gravitational.
