Movement of Objects

- Sarah Imran

Objects moving is something we witness in our everyday lives. Movement is caused by the amount of force you put into moving the object. An example that we see in our everyday lives that moves are humans. Moving has become part of our daily lives. We walk, hop and jump everyday. We can move horizontally, vertically and diagonally. This all occurs because of the force and energy.  

      When we kick a ball into a goal or throw a ball for someone to catch it, it automatically send the energy from our body to the object and makes it move. The more energy you put into it, the farther the object moves. We use energy everyday.  A chair is an object that doesn't move unless we make it. A chair stays in its place because if it did move humans would fall off it very quickly. We give it the energy to move. It moves because of energy. 

     Gravity makes objects fall faster when they are going down. Have you ever wondered why it's harder to walk up a hill than down? It's all because of gravity. When you go down a hill the gravitational force pulls you down. Gravitational force is energy which makes you go down faster than go up. The amount of energy changes whether you're going up a hill or down. 

    So in conclusion I think that movement depends on how much energy or force you're putting into moving the object.
