Newton’s Laws of Motion
If the sum of all external forces on an object is zero, then its speed and direction will not change. Inertia If a nonzero net force is applied to an object its motion will change F= ma In an interaction between two objects, the forces that each exerts on the other are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Lets do all demos here. Table cloth, Fred and cart, Equal and Opposite forces 30

Forces Non-Contact ---- Gravity (F = G m M /r2 ) Example: (two people)
G = 6.7x10-11 m3 / (kg s2) Example: (two people) F = (6.7x10-11 ) (60) (60)/ (.5)2 = Weight of 100g = 31
3
Example Weight of Person
Calculate the gravitational force on a 60 kg person near the surface of the earth. Earth: Mass = 6x1024 kg, radius = 6.4 x106 m. F = G M m / r2 = (6.7x10-11 m3 / (kg s2)) (6x1024 kg) (60 kg)/ (6.4x106 )2 m2 = kg m/s2 (Newtons) Most common gravitational calculation involves object close to surface of the earth F = (G M / r2) * m F = * m = 33
4
Newton’s 2nd Law Fnet = m a What if Gravity is the only force?
5
Normal Force Perpendicular to Surface Repulsive Reactive Contact
6
Example: (person in elevator)
Constant velocity M = 60kg
7
Example: (person in elevator)
Accelerating up at 2 m/s2 M = 60kg
8
Example: (person in elevator)
Accelerating down at 3m/s2 M = 60kg
9
Tension Similar to normal force (Reactive)
Can only pull (can’t push on rope) Constant throughout rope
10
Example: Box in Elevator
a= 2 m/s2 10kg
11
Springs 10kg Similar to tension, normal Reactive
Changes length according to tension F = -k Δx k=50 N/m 10kg
