TOPIC: FORCES Write in Questions as we go
WHAT IS FORCE? A force is simply a push or a pull. All forces have both direction and strength Any time there is a change in acceleration this means that the change was caused by a force.
WHAT IS A FORCE? All forces act on objects. Not all forces causes an object to move. For example you are all sitting on chairs, this exerts a force, but you do not cause the chair to move by sitting on it. You also cannot see all forces, like the force of gravity or the force that attracts two magnets.
1 MINUTE, WITH A PARNER: TRUE OR FALSE 1. A force is a push or a pull 2. You can see all forces 3. Forces always cause an object to move
NET FORCE Usually more than one force is acting on an object. the combination of all the forces acting on an object. The NET FORCE is the combination of all the forces acting on an object.
BALANCED FORCE When the forces of an object produce a net force of 0, then the forces are BALANCED FORCES. Balanced forces will not create a change in motion of an object. Some examples of balanced forces are a hat sitting on your head, a birds nest resting in a tree, or a light bulb hanging from the ceiling
UNBALANCED FORCE When the net force is ANYTHING other than 0 then the force is UNBALANCED. For example a tug-a-war between is an unbalanced force. Unbalanced forces Unbalanced forces are necessary to move an object.
5 TYPES OF FORCES F f = Friction force F A = Applied Force F n = Normal Force F g = Gravity F air = Air resistance
FRICTION A soccer ball rolling on the grass stops because of friction
exerted by the surface as an object moves across it and opposes the motion
FRICTION On a wet or icy surface, there is less friction, and people slip easily
APPLIED FORCE applied by an object or a person
NORMAL FORCE support force exerted on an object on any surface; always 90 degrees to the horizontal
Normal Force What are the 2 forces acting on you RIGHT NOW? NORMAL FORCE
gravity
Air resistance a type of frictional force that acts on objects moving the air and opposes the motion
Air resistance What two forces are at work on a skydiver?
2 MINUTES: FOLD YOUR NOTES OVER AND QUIZ YOUR PARTNER
