This Grade 2 science worksheet helps students connect the strength of a push or pull to how far or fast an object moves. Through fill-in-the-blank and matching exercises, learners see how bigger forces cause bigger changes in motion. Real examples like kicking a soccer ball or pulling a wagon with friends make the concept concrete for Grade 2 classrooms and at-home practice.
Style:
Force & Motion
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A big push moves a ball a farther distance than a small push.
2. A gentle tap on a toy car will make it move only a short way.
3. If two kids pull a wagon with more force, it speeds up faster than with one kid.
4. A strong wind can push a sailboat faster across the water than a weak breeze.
5. The harder you kick a soccer ball, the farther it rolls.
6. A tiny push on a heavy box might not move the box at all.
7. Bigger forces make objects move bigger changes in speed than small forces do.
8. Pulling a sled with more people adds up to a bigger total force.
9. A small push on a ball on smooth ice can still make it travel a long distance.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
Small push on a marble
→ Rolls just a few inches slowly
Rolls a very long distance down a field
Big kick on a soccer ball
→ Rolls a very long distance down a field
Adds forces to pull more quickly
Two kids pulling a wagon
→ Adds forces to pull more quickly
Rolls just a few inches slowly
Gentle tap on a toy car
→ Moves only a short way before stopping
Moves only a short way before stopping
