Force and Pressure-what i learnt
von MOK PECK YIM .
1. New node
2. Forces
3. To reduce friction, we can use lubricants.
4. Gravitational force
5. Magnetic Force
6. Used in refrigerators, dumpsters and telephones
7. Pressure
8. Amount of force applied per unit area
9. Depends on force and area
10. Reducing area can increase pressure eg: using sharp knives to cut apples
11. Increasing area can reduce pressure eg: camels have large feet so they do not sink into the ground
12. New node
13. Pressure= Force/ Area
14. A force involves a push and pull.
15. Force can change the direction, the shape and the speed of an object
16. F=ma
17. Without frictional force, we would not be able to hold anything without it slipping.
18. Too much friction may cause machines to work unneccessarily
19. Without gravitational force, everything would be floating around
20. Frictional force
21. Gravitational force causes things to fall
