A force is an interaction that can change the motion of an object. It can cause an object to accelerate, slow down, or change direction.

Forces can act through direct contact or at a distance, such as gravity or electromagnetism. They are described by both magnitude and direction.

All motion in the universe is the result of forces. Understanding forces allows us to explain everything from falling objects to planetary orbits.
