Abstract

Force is a fundamental concept in Newtonian mechanics that teachers and teacher educators are expected to understand well. However, even when teachers and teacher educators are familiar with Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation, they continue to hold several misconceptions about force. This article presents a series of experiments that explore and challenge these alternative conceptions.
