Question

what is the correct definition of force?
○ speeding up or slowing down
○ changing direction
○ moving an object
○ a push or pull

Explanation:

Force is defined as a push or pull. Speeding up or slowing down (acceleration/deceleration) is a result of force (from Newton's second law \(F = ma\)). Changing direction is also a result of a force (as it implies a change in velocity, which requires a force). Moving an object can be due to inertia (an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by a force), so it's not the definition of force. A push or pull is the fundamental definition of force.

Answer:

a push or pull
