| force | <physics> Rate of change of momentum with time. Forces are said to cause accelerations via f = ma (Newton's law). There are four primary forces known presently: the gravitational, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, and strong nuclear forces. The gravitational and electromagnetic forces are long-range (dropping as 1/distance^2), while the nuclear forces are short range (effective only within nuclei, distances on the order of 10^-15 metres). The electromagnetic force is much stronger than the gravitational force, but is generally cancelled over large distances because of the balance of positive and negative charges. See: momentum.

| forced cycle | <cardiology, physiology> A cardiac cycle (atrial or ventricular) that is cut short by a forced beat. (05 Mar 2000) |
| forced duction | A manoeuver to determine whether a mechanical obstruction is present in the eye; with forceps grasping an eye muscle, an attempt is made to passively move the eyeball in the direction of restricted rotation. Synonym: passive duction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| forced expiratory flow | Expiratory flow during measurement of forced vital capacity; subscripts specify the exact parameter measured, e.g., peak instantaneous flow, the instantaneous flow at some specified point on the curve of volume expired versus time, or on the flow-volume curve, the mean flow between two expired volumes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| forced expiratory flow rates | Measurements of rates of airflow during a forced vital capacity determination. (12 Dec 1998) |
| forced expiratory time | The time taken to expire a given volume or a given fraction of vital capacity during measurement of forced vital capacity; subscripts specify the exact parameters measured. (05 Mar 2000) |
| forced expiratory volume | Measure of the maximum amount of air during a forced vital capacity determination that can be expelled in a given number of seconds. It is usually given as fev followed by a subscript indicating the number of seconds over which the measurement is made, although it is sometimes given as a percentage of forced vital capacity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| accouchement force | Forced, artificially hastened delivery, by means of forceps, version, etc.; originally applied to rapid dilation of the cervix with the hands, with version and forcible extraction of the foetus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| brisement force | Forcible manipulation, usually under anaesthesia, in which the position of a deformed limb is corrected by tearing the soft tissue and crushing the bone, as in a once popular but no longer used correction for club foot deformities. Origin: Fr. Forcible breaking (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial ponderomotive force stabilisation | <radiobiology> In magnetic mirror devices, use of rf waves in the neighborhood of the ion cyclotron frequency to stabilise interchange modes. The radial ponderomotive force produced by a radial gradient in the applied rf electric field opposes the destabilising centrifugal force resulting from bad magnetic field curvature. The net particle current is in the direction that would result from field lines with good curvature, eliminating the drive for the interchange instability. (09 Oct 1997) |
| G force | Inertial force produced by accelerations or gravity, expressed in gravitational units; one G is equal to the pull of gravity at the earth's surface at sea level and 45 |
| masticatory force | The motive force created by the dynamic action of the muscles during the physiologic act of mastication. Synonym: biting strength, masticatory force. (05 Mar 2000) |
| redressement force | Straightening by force of a deformed part, as of knock-knee. Origin: Fr. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centering force | <physics, radiobiology> Term for the mutual attraction between the parallel currents in the inboard leg of the toroidal field coils in a toroidal magnetic fusion system. The portion of the coil running through the doughnut hole is attracted towards the centre of the hole. (13 Nov 1997) |
| reserve force | The energy residing in the organism or any of its parts above that required for its normal functioning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centrifugal force | <physics> The apparent force which seems to pull an object outward when the object is spun around in a circle. In reality, it is the centripetal force which keeps the object rotating around in the circle when the object's inertia makes the object inclined to move in a straight tangential line away from the circle. The centrifugal force does not really exist and, in a strictly physical sense, the term is a misnomer. However, the term is useful to biologists and chemists who are using centrifuges. (13 Nov 1997) |
| chewing force | force of mastication |
| gravitational force | <physics> Force which attracts two bodies together based on the product of their masses and the reciprocal of the square of their distances. Gravity is the force field created by one massive body (like the earth) which another body (like you) will experience. (09 Oct 1997) |
| microscopy, atomic force | Microscopy in which a probe systematically rides across the surface of a sample being scanned in a raster pattern. The vertical position is recorded as a spring attached to the probe rises and falls in response to peaks and valleys on the surface. A microcomputer keeps track of the vertical excursions as a function of the position of the probe in the horizontal plane and presents the sample's image. (12 Dec 1998) |
