2. Newton’s Laws of Motion How and why do things move the way they do?

3. Motion In order to prove motion, you must first have a point of reference. In order to prove motion, you must first have a point of reference. You don’t have to see something move, you can tell something has moved by its position according to a reference point. You don’t have to see something move, you can tell something has moved by its position according to a reference point. Not all motion is as obvious. You are in motion now, not relative to this room or your desk, but relative to other planets. Not all motion is as obvious.

Microwelds are surface bumps.

14. Static Friction If the microwelds that form between the surface and an object trying to be moved are to tight to be broken, then you have static friction. If the microwelds that form between the surface and an object trying to be moved are to tight to be broken, then you have static friction. Static friction has no net force, therefore there is no acceleration. Static friction has no net force, therefore there is no acceleration.

15. Sliding friction Sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past each other. Sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past each other. Sliding friction is caused by microwelds constantly breaking and then forming again as the object slides. Sliding friction is caused by microwelds constantly breaking and then forming again as the object slides. To keep the object moving, you must continue applying the force, if you don’t it will stop. To keep the object moving, you must continue applying the force, if you don’t it will stop.

16. Rolling Friction Rolling friction is the friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on. Rolling friction is the friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on. Microwelds break and then reform as it rolls. Microwelds break and then reform as it rolls. Rolling friction is usually much less than static or sliding friction. Rolling friction is usually much less than static or sliding friction.

17. Air Resistance Air resistance affects anything that moves in the air. Air resistance affects anything that moves in the air. Air resistance acts in the opposite direction of gravity. Air resistance acts in the opposite direction of gravity. The amount of air resistance depends on the size, speed, and shape of the object.
