Constant Backward Force
Definition:
- Backward Force: A push or a pull in the OPPOSITE direction that the object is moving
Hypothesis:
- Scenario 1: What will happen to the velocity of the ball if Mr. Ozeni gives the ball a constant backward force with the blow dryer? Why?
The metal ball will slow down, because there is a force, pushing it to go the opposite direction.
- Scenario 2: What will happen to the velocity of the car if Mr. Ozeni launches the car with the fan turned backwards so the fan is giving a constant backwards force? Why?
The car will move forward then back in the opposite direction.

Summary:
Partner 1 Summary
|
| A constant backwards force affects the velocity of an object because when the backwards force is applied to that object it causes it (the object) to slow down and eventually come to a complete stop. This would mean the forces are unbalanced. |
