  • Forces Acting on a Pram: A Comprehensive Overview
    1. Gravitational force

    * Acts vertically downwards due to the Earth's gravity.

    * Pulls the pram and its occupants downwards.

    2. Frictional force

    * Acts in the opposite direction to the motion of the pram.

    * Caused by the contact between the pram wheels and the ground.

    * Impedes the pram's motion.

    3. Muscular force

    * Applied by the person pushing the pram.

    * Acts in the forward direction.

    * Propels the pram forward.

    4. Air resistance

    * Acts in the opposite direction to the motion of the pram.

    * Caused by the air molecules colliding with the pram.

    * Impedes the pram's motion.

    5. Centripetal force

    * Acts towards the centre of a curved path.

    * When the pram is moving along a curved path, the centripetal force is necessary to keep it in that path.
