Any type of motion means a force is at work, it is one of the most fundamental concepts in physics, and has formed the basis of the work of many pioneering scientists, including Isaac Newton. This program introduces forces and some important basic laws and principles of physics. Content covered includes defining and identifying forces, balanced forces, unbalanced forces and inertia. Led by a presenter, a range of familiar objects is used to demonstrate and simplify a number of concepts, including a car, a canoe, a bicycle and even a milkshake. It is an engaging resource, aimed at lower to middle level secondary students of Science, which uses every day situations to explain these important fundamental areas.
