  • Forces and movement

    • Introduction to forces

      Learn about the different types of forces and the difference between contact and non-contact forces

    • Pressure

      Pressure is a measure of how concentrated a force is. The amount of pressure exerted on an object depends on the force applied and the surface area it is spread over.
