Resultant force is the overall force that acts on an object which can affect the motion of the object.

In this topic you need to know about the following: -

  • How a resultant force can cause acceleration or deceleration of an object.
  • Explain how mass affects the acceleration of an object using the equation Force = Mass x Acceleration
  • What stopping distance is and the factors that can affect it.

    • Use the arrows below to continue to revise.
