Can you give me examples of force?

Answer 1

-- A tug-of-war with the football team on one end of the rope

and the cheerleaders on the other end.

-- The weight of the space shuttle and external fuel tanks vs.

the thrust of its rocket engines when they're all burning.

-- My weight in the water vs. the maximum upward force that

I'm able to generate by kicking.

-- The weight of the front bumper of a car, with the car attached,

vs. the maximum force with which a little old lady is able to lift it.
