Learning outcomes
- Identify balanced and unbalanced forces
- Determine resultant forces
- Justify predicted motion changes
Teaching guidance
Use after exploratory force activities and ask for a free-body diagram to support each answer.
Classroom use
This licensed challenge supports teaching Force Challenge in Year 10. Teachers can use the resource as part of a lesson, investigation or classroom discussion. Full interactive access requires an eligible Education Universe licence or trial.
