PS2.A: Forces and Motion
Pushes and pulls can have different strengths and directions.
Pushing or pulling on an object can change the speed or direction of its motion and can start or stop it.

When objects touch or collide, they push on one another and can change motion.
PS3.C: Relationship Between Energy and Forces
A bigger push or pull makes things speed up or slow down more quickly. (secondary)
