What are other forces?

Other forces are invisible helpers that push or pull things around you, just like when you play with toys.

Imagine you're pushing a toy car across the floor. That’s one force, your hand pushing it. But what if the car slows down? That's another helper called friction, which is like the floor giving the car a little nudge backward.

Now think about when you ride a swing. You go up and then come back down, that’s because of gravity, the same force that keeps your feet on the ground.

Sometimes, things stick together or move apart without touching, like magnets! That's another kind of force called magnetism. It's like having invisible hands that can pull or push objects from a distance.

These helpers are all around you, working quietly so you can play, run, and even sleep, just like your favorite toy has its own special way of moving! Other forces are invisible helpers that push or pull things around you, just like when you play with toys.
