Week 6 Physics

This week we learned about forces! We learned that a newton is a unit of pushing or pulling, which is also known as a force. You always have forces acting on you, you have the Earth's gravity pulling you down, so you don't go shooting out to space, and you have the floor pushing you up, or whatever you are standing on, pushing you up so you don't sink to the bottom.. which would not be good. So, if you have the Earth pulling you down, and the floor pushing you up, but you are standing just right, this has to men that the force from the Earth and the floor are equal! yayayaay! We learned how to draw a force diagram of an object too.
