  • Understanding Forces: Identifying Non-Force Concepts
    The answer is momentum.

    Here's why:

    * Force: A push or pull that can cause a change in an object's motion.

    * Weight: The force of gravity acting on an object's mass.

    * Air friction (resistance): A force that opposes the motion of an object through the air.

    * Momentum: A measure of an object's mass and velocity. It's not a force, but rather a property of an object in motion.

    Momentum describes how much "motion" an object has, but it doesn't directly cause changes in motion like forces do.
