Force exerted perpendicular from a surface

Image: Normal Force

Acceleration of Gravity x mass

Image: Weight

Force exerted by a rope or cable supporting or pulling an object

Image: Tension Force

Contact force due to "rubbing" between two surfaces. Kinetic, static and air resistance are examples.

Image: Friction Force

Terminal Velocity

When air resistance = weight and velocity is constant.

Image: Terminal Velocity

The force exerted by a stretched or compressed spring.

Image: Spring Force

Reduces the amount of force needed to move an object by redirecting the applied force against gravity.

Image: Inclined Plane

Force used to push or pull an object.

Image: Applied Force

The sum of all forces acting on an object

Image: Net Force

Balanced Forces

Net force = 0; no acceleration

Image: Balanced Forces

Unbalanced Forces

Image: Unbalanced Forces

Force that is always present & keeps things upright

Image: Normal Force

Acceleration of Gravity x mass

Image: Weight

Force exerted by a rope or cable supporting or pulling an object

Image: Tension Force
