part #1: introduction to forces
a force is a ________________ or a ________________ (often represented by arrows)
forces have ________________ and ________________
net force - ________________ force on an object after all the forces are ________________ together
balanced force - ________________ acting on one object in ________________ directions (the net force = 0 because the forces cancel each other)
balanced forces acting on an object __________________ change an objects motion

Explanation:

A force is a push or a pull. Forces have magnitude and direction. Net force is the overall force on an object after all forces are combined. Balanced force is equal - sized forces acting on one object in opposite directions. Since the net force is 0, balanced forces acting on an object do not change an object's motion.

Answer:

A force is a push or a pull (often represented by arrows).
Forces have magnitude and direction.
Net Force - overall force on an object after all the forces are combined together.
Balanced Force - equal - sized forces acting on one object in opposite directions (the net force = 0 because the forces cancel each other).
Balanced forces acting on an object do not change an object's motion.
