3. What is a Force? Force- a push or a pull that acts on an object A force can cause a resting object to move, or it can accelerate a moving object by changing the object’s speed or direction Forces can be measured

4. What is a Force? Units of Force – Force is measured in newtons (N) – 1 newton is the force that causes a 1-kg mass to accelerate at a rate of 1 m/s 2 1 N = 1 kg*m/s 2 Representing Forces – Use an arrow to represent the direction and strength of a force – Direction of arrow = direction of the force (weight always acts downward) – Length of arrow = strength or magnitude of force

5. Combining Forces Combine force arrows to show the result of how forces combine Forces in the same direction ADD together Forces in the opposite direction SUBTRACT from one another Net Force- overall force acting on an object after all the forces are combined

6. Combining Forces Balanced Forces – Net force can be zero: when the same amount of force is being pulled in opposite directions – When the forces on an object are balanced, the net force is zero and there is no change in the object’s motion – Examples: tug of war, arm wrestling

7. Combining Forces Unbalanced Forces – A force that results when the net force acting on an object is not equal to zero – When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the object accelerates – Forces in opposite direction can also combine to produce an unbalanced force (tug of war with a winner)

9. Friction Friction- a force that opposes the motion of objects that touch as they move past each other Friction acts at the surface where objects are in contact. Without friction- walking would be impossible, food would slide off your fork, etc There are 4 main types of friction: static friction, sliding friction, rolling friction, and fluid friction

10. Static Friction The friction force that acts on objects that are not moving. Always acts in the direction opposite to that of the applied force

11. Sliding Friction A force that opposes the direction of motion of an object as it slides over a surface Sliding friction is less than static friction, so less force is needed to keep an object moving than to start it moving See example at the bottom of page 359

12. Rolling Friction When a round object rolls across a flat floor, both the object and the floor are bent slightly out of shape. This change in shape at the point of rolling contact is the cause of rolling friction, the friction force that acts on rolling objects.

13. Fluid Friction The force of fluid friction, opposes the motion of an object through a fluid Fluid friction increases with speed An object moving through the air is known as air resistance Example: you feel fluid friction when stirring thick cake batter (the faster you stir the greater the friction)

14. Friction

16. Gravity Gravity- a force that acts between any two masses – an attractive force, pulls objects together – Gravity is what holds us to Earth – Gravity can act over large distances – Earth’s gravity acts downward toward the center of Earth

17. Gravity Falling Objects – Gravity causes objects to accelerate downward, whereas air resistance acts in the direction opposite to the motion and reduces acceleration – When objects fall they gain speed, with increasing speed comes increasing air resistance. If an object falls for a long time, the upward force of air resistance becomes equal to the downward force of gravity at this point the forces are balanced, acceleration is zero and the object continues to fall at a constant velocity – Terminal velocity: constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.

18. Gravity *Air drag is the same as air resistance.

19. Projectile Motion Projectile Motion- the motion of a falling object (projectile) after it is given an initial forward velocity. The only forces acting upon it are air resistance and gravity When you throw a ball it actually follows a curved path because of gravity and air resistance, example of projectile motion

20. Projectile Motion

21. Newton’s First and Second Laws of Motion Chapter 12 Section 2 Page 363-369

22. Aristotle Greek scientist and philosopher (384 B.C. – 322 B.C.) Made many scientific discoveries through careful observation and logical reasoning. Not always correct Incorrectly proposed that force is required to keep an object moving at constant speed

23. Galileo Italian scientist (1564-1642) Studied about the world By rolling balls down wooden ramps, he studied how gravity produces constant acceleration. Concluded that moving objects not subjected to friction or any other force would continue to move indefinitely

24. Newton Isaac Newton built on the work of scientists such as Galileo Published work in a book entitled Principia – Defined mass and force – Introduced his laws of motion Discovered that gravity affects all objects in the universe

25. Newton’s First Law of Motion 1 st Law states: The state of motion of an object does not change as long as the net force acting on the object is zero – An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion with the same speed and direction unless acted upon – Sometimes referred to as the law of inertia Inertia- the tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion

26. Newton’s First Law of Motion

27. Think: if you are in a moving car that is involved in a front-end collision, the collision makes the car stop suddenly, but because you have inertia, you continue moving forward – A seat belt and airbag work by exerting force, opposing the forward motion

28. Newton’s First Law of Motion

29. Newton’s Second Law of Motion An unbalanced force causes an object’s velocity to change (the object accelerates) Acceleration of an object depends upon its mass – Mass- a measure of the inertia of an object and depends on the amount of matter the object contains – Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force acting on it (if force is doubled, the acceleration doubles)

30. Newton’s Second Law of Motion 2 nd Law states: the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by the object’s mass – Doubling the mass cuts acceleration in half – Units: Force is Newton (N) or kg*m/s 2 Mass is kg Acceleration is m/s 2

31. Newton’s Second Law of Motion Acceleration of an object is always in the same direction as the net force This law also applies when a net force acts in the direction opposite to the object’s motion – The force produces a deceleration that reduces the speed This is the principle used by automobile seat belts

32. Newton’s Second Law of Motion

33. Math practice page 367 – # 1-4

34. Weight and Mass Weight and Mass are NOT the same Weight- the force of gravity acting on an object – an object’s weight is the product of the object’s mass and acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s 2 ) acting on it – Same units as force

35. Weight and Mass The weight formula is basically Newton’s 2 nd law. Mass and Weight are proportional – Doubling the mass also doubles the weight Mass is a measure of the inertia of an object – The amount of matter in an object Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object Think about an astronaut on Earth and on the Moon

36. Newton’s Third Law of Motion and Momentum Chapter 12 Section 3 Page 372-377

37. Newton’s Third Law of Motion Force cannot exit alone, it always exist in pairs 3 rd Law states: whenever an object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object – The two forces are called action and reaction forces Think about bumper cars

38. Action and Reaction Forces In bumper cars… – Action force is the force your bumper car exerts on the other car – Reaction force is the force the other car exerts on your car – The 2 forces are equal in size and opposite in direction

39. Action-Reaction Forces and Motion

40. Action-Reaction Forces Do Not Cancel The forces do not cancel because the action and reaction forces do not act on the same object. Only when equal and opposite forces act on the same object do they result in a net force of zero.

41. Momentum Momentum- the product of an object’s mass and its velocity – An object with a large momentum is hard to stop – An object has large momentum if the product of its mass and velocity is large – Any object at rest has zero momentum – Units are kilogram-meters per second (kg*m/s) Momentum= mass x velocity

42. Conservation of Momentum In physics, conservation means that something has a constant value Conservation of Momentum- momentum does not increase or decrease The law of conservation of momentum- if no net force acts on a system, then the total momentum of the system does not change In a closed system, the loss of momentum of one object equals the gain in momentum of another object (momentum is conserved)

43. Conservation of Momentum

45. Universal Forces Chapter 12 Section 4 Page 378-382

46. Electromagnetic Forces Electromagnetic Forces is associated with charged particles Electric force and magnetic force are the only forces that can both attract and repel

47. Electric Forces Electric forces act between charged objects or particles such as electrons and protons – Objects with opposite charges attract one another – Objects with like charges repel one another

48. Magnetic Forces Magnetic forces act on certain metals, on the poles of magnets, and on moving charges Magnets have two poles, north and south (these 2 attract each other) – Poles that are alike repel each other

49. Nuclear Forces Think about the nucleus of an atom – 2 forces, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force, act within the nucleus to hold it together Strong Nuclear Force- a powerful force of attraction that acts only on the neutrons and protons in the nucleus, holding them together Weak Nuclear Force- an attractive force that acts only over a short range

50. Gravitational Force Gravity- the weakest universal force, but the most effective force over long distances Gravitational Force- an attractive force that acts between any two masses Newton’s law of universal gravitation states that every object in the universe attracts every other object

51. Gravitational Force Gravity acts over large distances – Gravitational force between 2 objects is proportional to their masses and decreases rapidly as the distance between the masses increases The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force

52. Gravitational Force The Earth, Moon and Tides – The moon has inertia, so according to Newton’s 1 st law, it should continue to move along in a straight path until acted upon by a force The force is Earth’s gravitational force which pulls the moon toward it- causes a nearly circular orbit around Earth The pull causes 2 bulges in Earth’s oceans (side closest to the moon and farthest from the moon), since Earth also has rotation, this causes high and low tide – Centripetal Force- a center-directed force that continuously changes the direction of an object to make it move in a circle

53. Gravitational Force

54. Satellites in Orbit – Much like the moon, the satellite needs only the centripetal force provided by gravity and its inertia to maintain its orbit – Satellites in low orbit, however, are slowed by friction with Earth’s atmosphere. As it loses speed, it also loses altitude, eventually burning in the atmosphere Uses of Satellites – Monitor Earth’s weather, create detailed radar maps of Earth’s surface, use telescopes to gaze deep into space, study Earth’s climate, allow for cell phone and tv signals
