Forces
2
Push or pull between TWO masses
3
Forces Push or pull between TWO masses Measured in Newtons (N) –What is a Newton?
4
Forces Push or pull between TWO masses Measured in Newtons (N) –What is a Newton? Is force a vector?
5
Forces Push or pull between TWO masses Measured in Newtons (N) –What is a Newton? Is force a vector? (direction)
6
Forces Push or pull between TWO masses Measured in Newtons (N) –What is a Newton? Is force a vector? (direction) Force is a vector (magnitude and direction)
7
Forces Push or pull between TWO masses Measured in Newtons (N) –What is a Newton? Is force a vector? (direction) Force is a vector (magnitude and direction) –Typically shown with an arrow F
8
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary
9
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses
10
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses –Attraction (pull) only –Weakest of the four
11
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses –Attraction (pull) only –Weakest of the four Electromagnetic (F E ) – between two charges
12
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses –Attraction (pull) only –Weakest of the four Electromagnetic (F E ) – between two charges –Attraction or repulsion
13
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses –Attraction (pull) only –Weakest of the four Electromagnetic (F E ) – between two charges –Attraction or repulsion Strong Nuclear – between subatomic particles (protons and neutrons) –Attraction
14
Long Range (Universal) Forces Forces that act at a distance – contact not necessary Gravitational (F g ) – between two masses –Attraction (pull) only –Weakest of the four Electromagnetic (F E ) – between two charges –Attraction or repulsion Strong Nuclear – between subatomic particles (protons and neutrons) –Attraction Weak Nuclear – subatomic stability
15
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary
16
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull
17
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull Tension (F T ) – along a rope, string, cable, chain Pulls only
18
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull Tension (F T ) – along a rope, string, cable, chain Pulls only Friction (F f ) – opposes motion between surfaces
19
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull Tension (F T ) – along a rope, string, cable, chain Pulls only Friction (F f ) – opposes motion between surfaces –Directed parallel to (along) surface
20
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull Tension (F T ) – along a rope, string, cable, chain Pulls only Friction (F f ) – opposes motion between surfaces –Directed parallel to (along) surface Normal (F N ) – supportive force out of a surface
21
Short Range Forces Apparent contact necessary Applied (F A )– basic push or pull Tension (F T ) – along a rope, string, cable, chain Pulls only Friction (F f ) – opposes motion between surfaces –Directed parallel to (along) surface Normal (F N ) – supportive force out of a surface –Directed perpendicular (normal) to surface –Not always “up”
22
Free-Body Diagrams (FBD) (Force Diagrams) Draw the object
23
Free-Body Diagrams (FBD) (Force Diagrams) Draw the object Define the system (objects involved)
24
Free-Body Diagrams (FBD) (Force Diagrams) Draw the object Define the system (objects involved) Draw forces as vector arrows –Show all forces as pulls
25
Free-Body Diagrams (FBD) (Force Diagrams) Draw the object Define the system (objects involved) Draw forces as vector arrows –Show all forces as pulls Draw FBD of book
26
Mass – amount of matter in an object unit: kilograms (kg) Weight – amount of gravitational force (F g ) pulling on a mass unit: Newtons (N) Lab – Determine how weight depends on the mass of an object.
27
Gravitational Force vs. Mass Lab Spring scale use F g ?? Accurate values Varied scales and mass amounts Mass in kilograms “Slope meaning” – use number and unit
