Glossing- when an object is being squeezed, squashed or compacted.e.g. squeezing an empty can]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795468 FRICTIONAL FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795469 Definition- as an object moves across a surface it causes friction.
Glossing- friction depends upon the nature of the two interacting surface.e.g. pushing an object across the room.]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795469 MAGNETIC FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795470 Definition- is a push or pull exerted by a magnet. all magnets have a north and south pole.
Glossing- this is the attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles due to their motion.e.g. iron nails when placed near a magnet.]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795470 ELECTRICAL FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795471 Definition- is a force that exists between all charged particles.
Glossing- it is the force which allows one to see when one turns on the lights in a dark room.]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795471 GRAVITATIONAL FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795472 Definition- this is a force by which the earth or moon or other massively objects attract another towards them.
Glossing- all objects on the earth experience the gravitational force which is directed downwards towards the center of the earth.]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795472 SPRING FORCES bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795473 Definition- A force which results when a spring is stretched or compressed.
Glossing- a spring is a metal elastic that returns to its original form when pulled or pressed , if a spring is stretched its force becomes attractive, if it is compressed its force is repulsive.e.g. a trampoline.  ]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795473 APPLIED FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795474 Definition- a force with which an object has been pushed or pulled. 
Glossing- a force is applied to an object to change its state of rest.e.g.  a boy pulling a cart

Glossing- air resistance force is noticeable for objects that travels at high speed up in the air.e.g. a parachute ]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795475 NORMAL FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795476 Definition-is a force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object.
Glossing- a normal force is applied horizontally between two objects in contact.e.g. a woman sitting on a chair.]]> 2018-09-25 21:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285795476 TENSION FORCE bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285812856 Definition- a force that is transmitted through a string, cable, rope, or wire, when it is pulled tightly by the object on the opposite end.
Glossing- the force flows across the length of the wire or rope.e.g. two boys playing tug of war.]]> 2018-09-25 23:57:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285812856 bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285814559 2018-09-26 00:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285814559 FORCES bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285814710 Dictionary definition: A force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity.
Learner definition- A force is strength or energy applied towards any objects for physical action or any movement.]]> 2018-09-26 00:11:01 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285814710 TEACHING STRATEGY bontlemoseneke https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285820580 TEACHING STRATEGY]]> 2018-09-26 00:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/bontlemoseneke/ENAC221WORDBANK/wish/285820580
