What is the size of the upward force compared with the pulling force How do you know?

The upward force is equal in magnitude to the pulling force. This is because of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. So the force pulling an object up is equal to the force pulling it down.


What is the name of the force that is pulling you down when you stand on a set of bathroom scales?

Gravity . . . pulling you down. The scale . . . pushing you up. If these two forces were not equal, then there would be a net force on the bottom of your feet, either upward or downward, and you would be accelerating.


What force of a hanging light does not move because the force of gravity pulling down is balanced in the cord pulling it up?

The tension force in the cord that is pulling the light up is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force of gravity pulling the light down. This balance of forces causes the light to remain stationary in its position.


Give the name of the force which cause someone to speed up as they fall?

The force that causes someone to speed up as they fall is gravity. Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects with mass, pulling them towards each other.


What is the size of the force pulling an apple down compared with the size of the force pushing it up?

The force pulling the apple down (gravity) is equal in size to the force pushing it up (normal force) when the apple is at rest or moving at a constant velocity. This is because the apple is in equilibrium and the forces are balanced.

When you walk up an inclined plane your legs supply the effort force What is the resistance force?

the resistance force is the slope of the plane, or the hypotenuse.

What is normal force?

Normal force is the force of a surface acting on an object( the normal force is perpendicular to the plane of contact). This force is directly related to the force of gravity, as the third law of newton state that when a force is applied to an object it will react with an equal force in the opposite direction. So when an object is placed on a surface, the force of gravity is acting on it (pulling it down), but the is object remain in place due to the normal force (which is pulling up on the object). In addition, a change to the force of gravity will result in the same change to the force of normal, to allow an object to remain stationary.


How does a Inclined plane affect force?

An inclined plane reduces the amount of force needed to lift an object by allowing the force to be spread out over a longer distance. This makes it easier to move objects up or down the plane using less force than lifting straight up.


Is a child sitting on a swing a unbalanced or balance force?

A child sitting on a swing is an example of a balanced force. The force of gravity pulling down on the child is balanced by the tension in the swing's ropes pulling up.
