Goals:
1. Know how a spring's stretch is related to the applied force.
2. Draw Force Diagrams correctly: Vectors(arrows) start on object feeling the force, direction is in the direction of the force, length is proportional to the force.
3. Know that forces are pushes or pulls
4. Know that no movement means the forces are balanced.
5. Know that weight is different than mass - it is the force due to gravity.
6. Know that 1 Newton is the weight of about 100 grams (two hexnuts).
