  • Force vs. Motion: Understanding the Difference
    A force is not a motion. It's a push or pull that can cause a change in motion.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Force: The influence that causes a change in an object's motion. It can cause an object to start moving, stop moving, or change its direction or speed.

    * Motion: The act of moving or being moved. It describes the change in position of an object over time.

    Think of it this way:

    * Force is the cause.

    * Motion is the effect.

    A force can cause motion, but it's not the same thing.
