Forces

by Jon Richards, Ed Simkins

Overview

Physical forces affect us in big and little ways every day. To ride a bike, one must push down on the pedals. To cut through paper with scissors, pressure must be applied. Even Earth and all the planets in our solar system move around the sun by the forces of gravity. Through visually pleasing and informative infographics, readers are presented with scientific concepts that are manageable and that make sense in the context of their everyday lives.
