Here's why:
* Interaction: Forces always involve a relationship between two or more objects. They are not something an object possesses on its own.
* Change in motion: Forces can accelerate or decelerate an object, changing its velocity (speed and direction).
* Change in shape: Forces can also deform an object, changing its shape (like stretching a rubber band).
Some examples of forces acting between objects include:
* Gravity: The force of attraction between any two objects with mass.
* Electromagnetism: The force between electrically charged objects.
* Contact forces: Forces that occur when objects touch, like friction or the force of a push or pull.
