The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Definition**: The question asks for a term that describes a push or a pull on an object. We need to identify the correct term that fits this definition. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options given in the video transcript include "Chemical," "Force," "Magnet," and "Gravity." We need to analyze these options to find the one that matches the definition of a push or pull. 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Chemical**: This refers to substances and reactions, not a push or pull. - **Magnet**: While magnets can exert forces, the term itself does not define a push or pull. - **Gravity**: This is a force that pulls objects towards each other, but it is not a general term for all pushes or pulls. - **Force**: This is defined as a push or pull on an object. It encompasses both actions and is the correct term. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer to fill in the blank is "Force." **Final Answer**: A **Force** is a push or a pull on an object. ---
