Find out more about Sir Isaac Newton’s laws of force and motion at the amusement park, Silverwood. A force is basically a push or a pull. Forces like gravity, inertia, and momentum affect everything.

When you push or pull with a simple machine, you are applying a force and doing work. And, if you get more force out of a machine than you put into it, then that machine has a mechanical advantage.

Discusses the principles of levers, a type of simple machine that helps lift heavy loads by changing the direction or magnitude of force applied. It explains how the position of the fulcrum affects ...

Students will apply their knowledge of physical science concepts to create a lunar lander game using Scratch. They will use Vernier force and acceleration sensors to understand forces and integrate ...

A young visitor interacts with a mechanical experiment inside a science museum, demonstrating basic physics concepts such as motion, force, and balance. By pulling and operating the metal device, the ...

Hydraulics is great for lifting heavy loads and applying large amounts of force, but the same power that is required to exert a large amount of lifting or compression force can also do damage or ...
