Laws of Motion

In the last chapter, we learnt that every living and non-living thing on the Earth exhibits motion. In this chapter, we will learn more about what causes the motion. This question has boggled the physicists for many centuries. To move any object, you require ‘Force’. In the same way, to stop any moving object, you require a ‘Force’. Thus, force becomes an essential cause for any motion. The concept of force is based on actions like push, hit or pull. But what is it exactly? Let us ponder about a force and make an attempt to quench all such curiosities in this chapter.
