balanced and unbalanced forces

Here are some videos on balanced and unbalanced forces affecting the motion of objects.  The first clip examines the forces on a cyclist as she cycles round a velodrome.

The second clip looks at the way skydivers use forces to land safely.

I’ve also attached a pdf with some notes on forces, free body diagrams and Newton’s laws of motion.  Download the file using the link below.
