Forces & Work - GCSE Physics

🦊 In this GCSE Physics video, we explain that a force is a push or pull that can alter an object's motion by making it move, stop, speed up, slow down, or change shape. It illustrates that forces do work by transferring energy; for example, pushing a box transfers chemical energy from your hand to kinetic energy in the box. Work, in this context, is described as the energy transfer that occurs when a force moves an object over a distance.
