Grade 3 forces quiz with answers: Push, Pull, Friction, Gravity.

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 👆 Push: A force that moves something away from you. Think of pushing a door open.
• 👇 Pull: A force that moves something closer to you. Think of pulling a wagon.
• 摩擦 Friction: A force that opposes motion when two surfaces rub against each other. It slows things down.
• 🌎 Gravity: A force that pulls objects towards each other. It's what keeps us on the ground.
• 📏 Newton's First Law: An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a force.
• 🍎 Gravity Formula (simplified): $F = mg$, where $F$ is the force of gravity, $m$ is mass, and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately $9.8 m/s^2$ on Earth).
