Describe the effects of forces between bodies such as changes in speed
Changes in speed When an object is stationary it has an equal force pushing down and up. The downward force being gravity and the upward force being the surface the object is on. The object is not floating but it is not going into the ground.

Describe the force acting on falling objects called terminal velocity?
Eventually, the object's weight is balanced by the air resistance. There is no resultant force and the object reaches a steady speed, called the terminal velocity.

Describe the factors affecting vehicle stopping?
Stopping distance is thinking distance and braking distance added together, things that effect this are: The condition of the driver; drugs/ tiredness (thinking distance) How worn the brakes/ tyres are If the weather conditions are poor How heavy the
