Force and motion are closely connected. A force is a push or pull that can make something move or stop. For example, when you kick a soccer ball, your foot applies a force that sends the ball rolling. Motion is when an object changes its position, like the ball moving across the field. If no force is applied, the ball will stay still. Understanding how forces affect motion helps us see how things move in our world!
