Forces are all around us, constantly pushing and pulling on objects. Some forces are strong, like when you lift a heavy box or when a magnet pulls strongly on a piece of metal. Other forces are weaker, like the gentle pull of gravity on a feather or the slight push you feel from a breeze. This activity sheet will help you identify examples of strong and weak forces.
