What is a Force? the influence that produces a change in a physical quantity; "force equals mass times acceleration"
3
Friction and Tension Weight and Normal force
4
Weight, Friction, and Boyancy force
5
Normal Force When a body presses against a surface, the surface pushes back on the body with a force that is perpendicular to the surface. The normal force always self-adjusts to equal the force pressing the body to the surface.
6
Tension Tension is a force transmitted by a rope, cord, cable or the like which transmits a force, undiminished, from one end to an object attached at the other end, it always pulls.
7
Tension The tension force pulls on a body.
The cord is often assumed to be massless. We usually assume pulleys to be frictionless A string has a single tension force (magnitude) on both sides of a frictionless pulley.
8
Weight, (Gravitational Force)
9
Friction

A book whose mass is 2 kg rests on a table
A book whose mass is 2 kg rests on a table. Find the magnitude of the force exerted by the table on the book. FN Fg Note: This force is called the Normal force because it acts perpendicular to the contact surface of the object.
