# Add Relative Force 2D

Adds a force to the rigidbody2D relative to its coordinate system.

The force is specified as two separate components in the X and Y directions (there is no Z direction in 2D physics). The object will be accelerated by the force according to the law *force = mass x acceleration* - the larger the mass, the greater the force required to accelerate to a given speed.
