Which of the statements about force are true? (Question has multiple correct options)
A. It can be seen
B. It causes an object to move
C. It is pull or a push
D. It can change the motion of an object
Solution
This question talks about the influence of force on an object or objects and how we can view the possible impact also they have on the objects
Complete step by step answer:
We are given to find the statements about force which are true.
Force is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction.
A force basically acts to move an object from one point to another following different types of motion like circular, rotational, rectilinear and even relative motion.
It can change the motion of an object, and a body already in motion can be stopped by the application of a force, also a body or object that is static or not moving can be made to move by the application of a force. Applicative example is seen in a car that is already in motion and sees an obstacle ahead; it then applies a brake which causes the car to decelerate and finally stop before the obstacles.
In the same vein, after the obstacle has been removed it accelerates or starts to move again because a force also has been applied and also it is a pull or push whereby it either a force brings an object to itself or drifts the same object away from itself. As force is an interaction it cannot be seen.
Therefore, Options B, C and D are correct.
Note: It is important to know that force(s) exist and they as well act on objects. Force or forces are always felt no matter their distances apart.
