-
is they put bodies in various circumstances
-
and they deduce various forces.
-
This is the force of gravity.
-
This is the force of the spring.
-
Here's another force you might find.
-
You put a chunk of wood on a table
-
and you try to move it at constant speed.
-
Then you find that you have to apply minimum force.
-
We are moving at constant velocity.
-
That means the force you're applying is cancelled by another force,
-
which has got to be the force of friction.
-
So force of friction is yet another force.
