An object in motion will continue in motion unless acted on by external force. In our experiments we set cells in motion using a motorized syringe pump and observed changes in the state of the cells’ motion as they transitioned from continuous flow to firm adhesion on charged surfaces. A change in motion is called acceleration. Whenever an object accelerates there must be a cause of that acceleration, and that cause is called the force.
