FORCE AND MOTION
2
NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION
- Established the relationship between motion and force
3
FIRST LAW – LAW OF INERTIA
Every object tends to remain at rest or move with a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net force. NET FORCE – summation of all forces acting on a given body INERTIA – measure of the mass of an object Examples: a. Passenger tends to move forward when a car suddenly stops. b. A moving car in uniform motion slows down when the brake is applied.

FIRST LAW – LAW OF INERTIA
This means that in theory an object can travel FOREVER. However, in practice there would always be some friction to slow it down. v v
5
Force is either a push or pull
6
SECOND LAW LAW OF ACCELERATION
The acceleration (a) of a body is directly proportional and in the same direction as the net force (F) applied to it and inversely proportional to the mass (m). a (m/s2) = Force (kg-m/s2) mass (kg) Unit of force = 1 newton (N) = kg-m/s2

SECOND LAW LAW OF ACCELERATION
m
8
SECOND LAW LAW OF ACCELERATION
m An increase in force will produce an increase in acceleration.
9
SECOND LAW LAW OF ACCELERATION
m An increase in mass will produce less acceleration (for the same amount of force).
10
THIRD LAW LAW OF INTERACTION
For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction. When a force is applied to an object, the object exerts a force that has the same magnitude but opposite in direction. These are called action-reaction forces.

THIRD LAW LAW OF INTERACTION

THIRD LAW LAW OF INTERACTION
A rocket motor A reaction force acts on the exhaust Gases gives a thrust or force on the rocket, accelerating it forward.
