FORCES
AND
MOTION:
HOW
THINGS
MOVE
Motion
is
the
process
of
an
object
changing
place
or
position.
Position
refers
to
an
object’s
location.
The
position
of
an
object
all
depends
on
how
a
person
is
looking
at
the
object
and
what
it
is
being
compared
to,
which
is
known
as
an
object’s
relative
position.
Speed
is
how
fast
an
object
is
moving
or
changing
its
position.
When
an
object
changes
its
position,
it
always
changes
position
at
a
certain
rate
of
speed.
Speed
can
be
at
a
fast
rate
or
it
can
be
at
a
slow
rate.
A
constant
speed
is
when
an
object
moves
at
the
same
speed
the
whole
time
it
moves.
An
object
moving
at
a
variable
speed
means
that
it
changes
its
speed
as
it
is
moving.

is

A
force
is
a
push
or
pull
upon
an
object
that
causes
it
to
change
speed
or
direction.
A
force
involves
two
or
more
object
interacting
with
each
other.
Contact
forces
are
forces
that
occur
when
you
physically
touch
or
make
contact
with
another
object.
Lesson
Checkpoint:
What
is
a
force?
The
distance
an
object
is
moved
depends
on
how
much
force
is
used
to
move
it.
The
harder
you
push
on
an
object,
the
more
the
object
will
move
in
its
motion.
How
difficult
or
easy
it
is
to
move
an
object
depends
on
the
object’s
weight.
You
do
not
need
to
apply
a
lot
of
force
to
move
an
object
that
is
light
in
weight.
However,
if
an
object
has
a
lot
of
weight,
you
will
need
to
apply
a
lot
more
force
to
move
the
object
in
comparison
to
an
object
that
has
less
weight.
Friction
is
a
force
that
works
in
the
opposite
direction
of
an
object
that
is
moving.
The
type
of
surface
you
are
pushing
an
object
on
has
a
lot
to
do
with
the
amount
a
friction
against
the
object.
If
you
are
pushing
a
box
on
grass,
the
grass
would
apply
more
friction
than
if
you
were
pushing
the
box
on
a
smooth
surface.

Forces,
such
as
pushes,
pulls,
and
friction,
can
change
the
motion
and
speed
of
an
object.
Magnetism
is
a
force
that
does
not
need
direct
contact
with
an
object
in
order
to
make
that
object
change
its
position.
Magnetism
is
the
property
of
attracting
certain
metals.
Magnets
attract
metals
such
as
iron
and
steel.
A
magnet
can
move
a
steel
paper
clip
with
its
magnetic
force
that
pulls
the
steel
paper
clip
towards
the
magnet.
Lesson
Checkpoint:
Name
an
object
that
is
attracted
by
a
magnet.
Gravity
is
another
force
that
pushes
and
pulls
objects
without
being
in
direct
contact
with
those
objects.
Gravity
is
a
force
of
nature
that
tries
to
pull
two
objects
of
matter
together.
When
you
drop
your
pencil,
gravity
causes
your
pencil
to
fall
to
the
ground.
It
is
what
keeps
our
bodies
on
the
Earth
which
is
why
we
do
not
float
away
when
we
are
on
Earth.
Lesson
Checkpoint:
What
causes
us
to
remain
on
the
ground
instead
of
floating
away?
