Description
Social problems and conflicts are integral part of the society from the time immemorial. In providing relief and solution to these problems, social work and social welfare have also remained a part of human society. Professional social work utilizes certain methods of working with people, in view of empowering the people to solve their problems. Among the methods of social work, social action is a professional social work practice whose relevance is often felt in the field situations. The inherent theme behind social action is readjustment of the social institutions and redistribution of power and resources for social justice and
empowerment of the community. As a method of social work, social action mobilizes the general population to bring about structural changes in the social system.

A force as you defined in secondary school is a push or pull. Forces may fail to change an object’s motion if they are cancelled by other forces, e.g. the force of gravity pulling you down right now is being cancelled by the force of the chair pushing up on you. When nothing is moving, forces are balanced. The metric unit of force is the Newton (N). Forces may be internal (forces
acting within the structure itself) or external (forces acting on the object from the outside) In simple terms; when you take a force and divide it over a particular crosssectional area you get stress.
