- Force - Wikipedia
In physics, a force is an action that can cause an object to change its velocity or its shape, or to resist other forces, or to cause changes of pressure in a fluid In mechanics, force makes ideas like ' pushing' or ' pulling' mathematically precise
- Force | Definition Formula | Britannica
Force, in mechanics, any action that tends to maintain or alter the motion of a body or to distort it The concept of force is commonly explained in terms of Isaac Newton’s three laws of motion Because force has both magnitude and direction, it is a vector quantity
- FORCE Definition Meaning - Merriam-Webster

- Types of Forces - The Physics Classroom
A force is a push or pull that acts upon an object as a result of that objects interactions with its surroundings In this Lesson, The Physics Classroom differentiates between the various types of forces that an object could encounter
- Force Definition in Science
The force on an object equals the object’s mass multiplied by its acceleration When one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first
- Force - Definition, Effects, Types, Sample Problems
Therefore, Force can be defined as a push, pull, or impact that causes a change in an object's motion It is exerted by one object on another, influencing its speed, direction, or shape

- 4. 1 Force - Physics | OpenStax
When multiple forces act on an object, the forces combine Adding together all of the forces acting on an object gives the total force, or net force An external force is a force that acts on an object within the system from outside the system
