Back again. Today, I'm going to be posting once more about force. This is the last one, I promise, hehe... :3 Anyways, the picture above has my lanyard swinging like a pendulum. Because it is swinging, the forces acting upon it are unbalanced. Firstly, the force of gravity is attempting to pull the lanyard downwards, creating tension in the lanyard itself. This means that the mass will be gradually pulled towards the center of the swing-arc. Along with that, there is the force of wight that allows my lanyard to swing back and forth.
