Adaptive force is a stat that grants champions either 
attack damage or 
ability power, depending on the current amount of bonus attack damage and ability power of the champion, as follows:
-
Higher Bonus AD → Attack damage
- Higher AP → Ability power
1 point of Adaptive Force provides 0.6 bonus AD or 1 AP.
If the attack damage and the ability power of the unit are equal, the stat granted depends on the champion.
In most cases, the League of Legends Wiki omits adaptive force in favour of displaying the amount of AD or AP granted.

Adaptive damage does not take into account your target's resistances or your own penetration stats.
