Force‚ Motion‚ Newton’s Laws‚ Momentum‚ and Impulse What is force? Force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object’s interaction with another object. There are two types of force‚ contact forces‚ and forces resulting from action-at-a-distance. A contact force can be frictional forces‚ normal forces‚ applied forces‚ and air resistant forces. The formula for contact force is F = ma. This type of force occurs when two objects are contacting each other physically. If you kick a ball

The present invention relates to polyvinyl chloride plastisol compositions‚ for example sealant compositions. In the manufacture of automobiles‚ the automobile body is initially primed with a coating composition to prevent corrosion of the metal. This can be done in a number of ways although generally it is performed by cationic electrodeposition using the auto body as the cathode. Once the automobile body has been primed in this manner‚ subsequent steps in the assembly are carried out. These
