2. How do we make things speed up or slow down?
Whenever two bodies interact, the forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite.
If the resultant force acting on a stationary body is zero the body will remain stationary.

18. How do we make things speed up or slow down?
Whenever two bodies interact, the forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite.
If the resultant force acting on a stationary body is zero the body will remain stationary.

27. How do forces have a turning effect?
to describe how to find the centre of mass of a thin sheet of a material
to calculate the size of a force, or its distance from an axis of rotation, acting on a body that is balanced
to analyse the stability of bodies by considering their tendency to topple.
The turning effect of a force is called the moment.
The size of the moment is given by the equation: moment (newton metre, Nm) = force (newton, N) x perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the axis of rotation (metre, m)
The centre of mass of a body is that point at which the mass of the body may be thought to be concentrated.
If suspended, a body will come to rest with its centre of mass directly below the point of suspension.
The centre of mass of a symmetrical body is along the axis of symmetry.
If a body is not turning, the total clockwise moment must be exactly balanced by the total anticlockwise moment about any axis.
Recognise the factors that affect the stability of a body.
If the line of action of the weight of a body lies outside the base of the body there will be a resultant moment and the body will tend to topple.
