About this concept

What to notice

Watch how far the object moves when you push it. Change the force and mass -- the distance changes every time.

Why it matters

Everything that moves was pushed, pulled, or attracted by something. How much it moves depends on the push and what's being pushed.

Think about

If you push a cricket ball and a truck with the same force, which moves more? Try it here.
