From the above activity, we understand that a force, applied on an object,
may change its speed, or direction of motion, or both.
We also realise that
if the applied force acts on a body along its direction of motion, the speed
of the body will increase.
if the direction of force, on the body, is opposite to its direction of
motion, the speed will decrease.
(In both the above two cases, the object is supposed to be moving in
a straight line).
.
if the force acts at an angle to the direction of motion, it can change
the speed as well as the direction of motion.
Do You Know?
When a very small body hits a very large body, the forces acting on both the bodies are equal in
magnitude but opposite in direction. However, the effect (of force) produced in the small body
is very large as compared to the effect of (the equal) force on the larger body.
