What is the difference between a form of energy and a Force?
In: 8
Like the other comment said; Force makes an object move faster or slower (or change the object’s direction, depending on how the force is applied). Energy is a force provided over a distance (and a few other things; see the comment below).
Let’s take a car crash for an example. The front part of the car crumples (that is the distance) and there’s an average force over that distance. If we multiply the two together, we’ll get (roughly) the energy of the car before the collision.
