Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion: Student Learning Goal The student will be able to state Newton’s 2nd Law and apply it in qualitative and quantitative terms to explain the effect of forces acting on objects. (B3.4)
Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
Newton’s Second Law of Motion If the net force is not zero, the object will be accelerated in the direction of the net force.
Newton’s Second Law of Motion If the net force is not zero, the object will be accelerated in the direction of the net force.
Newton’s Second Law of Motion If the net force is not zero, the object will be accelerated in the direction of the net force. i.e. the more massive the object, the harder it is to change its motion (the higher its inertia).
Newton’s Second Law of Motion If the net force is not zero, the object will be accelerated in the direction of the net force.
Newton’s Second Law Example Example: A weightlifter lifts a 165-kg weight by exerting a force of 1.8 kN [up]. The force of gravity on the object is 1.6 kN [down]. Draw a FBD of the weight. What is the net force on the weight? What is the acceleration of the weight?
