Here's a breakdown:

* Force: A force is an interaction that can cause a change in an object's motion. This means it can:

* Start an object moving if it's at rest

* Stop an object that's moving

* Change the direction of an object's motion

* Change the speed of an object

* Push: A force applied in a direction away from the object.

* Pull: A force applied in a direction towards the object.

Examples:

* Pushing: Pushing a shopping cart, pushing a door open, pushing a swing

* Pulling: Pulling a wagon, pulling a rope, pulling a drawer open

Forces have both magnitude (how strong they are) and direction.
