4. Forces (pages 21-28) Essential Questions
1. What is a force? push or a pull 2. What is an example of a contact and a noncontact force? contact – friction noncontact - gravity 3. What two factors determine the force of gravity? mass and distance 4. How does friction effect motion? works in the opposite direction of motion 5. How do balanced and unbalanced forces effect motion? balanced – stationary or constant speed and direction unbalanced - acceleration

7. Gravity
Depends on mass and distance

8. Friction
Describe 3 areas or instances where having more friction on a bicycle is a “good thing”.
Describe 3 areas or instances where having more friction on a bicycle is a “not-so-good thing”?

9. Other forces Magnetic Aerodynamic drag (fluid friction) Thrust Lift
Buoyant

10. Balanced and unbalanced forces
Notes
Sim Questions
Balanced forces
No motion
Constant speed in same direction
Unbalanced forces
Motion
Changing speed or direction
What if gravity and buoyancy are unbalanced?
What if gravity and buoyancy are balanced?
Why does weight change in water but not mass?

11. Force diagram vocabulary
Gravity – always straight down
Normal – opposes gravity, when object is resting on a solid surface
Buoyant – opposes gravity when object is suspended in a fluid (liquid or gas)
Applied – “push or pull”
Friction – opposes applied force

12. Warm-up - Copy Force diagrams
Gravity – straight down
Normal – opposes gravity when object is resting on a solid surface
Applied – push or pull
Friction – opposes applied force and motion

Friction
500N
Applied
450 N
Gravity
1000N

20. Warm-up
If an object is being pushed with 200 N of force and has 250 N of static friction, will it move? Explain.

21. Force diagram practice
A 20,000 N (down) plane has 10,000 N of drag (back) and 50,000 N of thrust (forward) and is able to generate 30,000 N of lift (up). Sketch a force diagram, identify the forces as balanced or unbalanced, and decide if the object is moving.
A piece of wood weighing 100 N in placed in a tub of water. The buoyant force on the wood is equal to 100 N. Sketch a force diagram, identify the forces as balanced or unbalanced, and decide if the object is moving.
How could one team beat another team in tug-of-war if both teams have the same overall weight and both teams are pulling with the same force? Sketch a force diagram to help explain your answer.

22. DOL
Why must engineers consider forces when designing different modes of transportation? Give specific examples.
Force diagrams
