2. Chapter 4 Forces

3. Forces and Interaction Force – a “push or pull” Contact Force – you physically push on a wall Long-range Force – like magnets or gravity Force – a vector quantity. Has what two parts. SI Unit – the Newton abbreviated as “N”

4. 4 Types Forces Gravitational forces The Earth pulls and holds the moon in orbit The moon pulls and causes tide changes Electromagnetic forces due to electric charges, both static and moving. Strong Nuclear Forces holds particles in the nucleus together. (Strongest of the 4) Weak Nuclear Forces Radioactive decay

5. An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. Here, the girl is at rest until acted on by the force imposed by the cannonball. Newton’s 1st Law

6. An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. Here, the skateboard/log combination is at rest until acted on by the force imposed by the rocket.

7. Newton’s 1 st Law An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. Consider a baseball that is pitched to a batter. What force causes the ball to change direction? Hit

8. Newton’s 1 st Law An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. Consider the space shuttle turning while in space flight. What produces the forces?

9. Newton’s 1 st law An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. Consider the space shuttle when landing. What produces the forces?

11. Newton’s 1 st Law

12. Newton’s 2 nd Law Acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force. Acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

13. Newton’s 2 nd Law Acceleration depends on both mass and the net force

14. Acceleration depends on net force A force of 10N accelerates the box

15. Acceleration depends on net force A force of 20N accelerates the box twice as fast

16. Acceleration depends on mass A force of 10N accelerates the box

17. Acceleration depends on mass A force of 10N accelerates the smaller box faster

20. Newton’s 2 nd Law

21. Newton’s Second Law – Non-Equilibrium Situation Two 50g masses are placed 40cm on either side of a fulcrum. What is the Net force? If left mass slides 20cm right, what happens? If the left mass slides 20cm right and grows to 100g, what type of situation is this?

22. Newton’s 3 rd Law

23. When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second exerts a force on the first that is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action. Action – Reaction force pair

24. Newton’s 3 rd Law Example A book rests on a table The force from the weight of the book pushes down. The table provides a supportive force up. Normal force (N) is perpendicular to the surface

25. Free-body diagrams Draw the free-body diagram for a book is at rest on a table top.

26. A girl is suspended motionless from a bar which hangs from the ceiling by two ropes. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this: Free-body diagrams

27. An egg is free-falling from a nest in a tree. Neglect air resistance. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this: Free-body diagrams WS 5b #3

28. A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk at constant velocity. Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:

32. A force is applied to the right to drag a sled across loosely-packed snow with a rightward acceleration. A free-boy diagram for this situation looks like this

33. A football is moving upwards towards its peak after having been booted by the punter. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:

34. A car is coasting to the right and slowing down. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:

35. Net Force If there is no movement –The net force is zero If there is no acceleration –The net force is zero If there is acceleration –The net force is not zero.

36. Free Body diagrams If the net forces are zero, the FBD is balanced

37. Examples of zero net force? A book on a desk A sky diver with a parachute open A bike moving at a constant speed.

38. Free Body diagrams If the net forces are NOT zero, the FBD is NOT balanced

39. Examples of non zero net force A book sliding across a desk A sky diver falling without a parachute

40. Net force: The vector sum of all forces

41. Equilibrium or Non-equilibrium When the helicopter is on the ground, what state is it in? Why isn’t it moving? In order to get it moving, what would we need? What state is it in when it is hovering in place? In order to get it to move, what would we need?

42. What forces are acting on the train while it is moving in a straight line at a constant speed? Engine Force (F E ) – Force applied to propel the train along the tracks. Opposition Force (F o ) – friction between the tracks, wind resistance, etc. that attempts to slow the train down. What is the acceleration of the train? Negative, Zero, or Positive. Is this an equilibrium or non-equilibrium situation? Net Force – Equilibrium in Motion

43. Net Force – Non-Equilibrium Describe what happens in the animation below. What forces were acting on the train? Engine Force (F E ) – Force applied to propel the train along the tracks. Opposition Force (F o ) – friction between the tracks, wind resistance, etc. that attempts to slow the train down. Which force was larger? What is the acceleration of the train? Negative, Zero, or Positive. Is this an equilibrium or non-equilibrium situation?

44. Net Force – Non-Equilibrium Describe what happens in the animation below. What forces were acting on the train? Opposition Force (F o ) – friction between the tracks, wind resistance, etc. that attempts to slow the train down. What is the acceleration of the train? Negative, Zero, or Positive. Is this an equilibrium or non-equilibrium situation?

45. Net Force If there is no movement –The net force is zero If there is no acceleration –The net force is zero If there is acceleration –The net force is not zero.

46. Newton’s Second Law – Non-Equilibrium Situation The result of a Non-Equilibrium situation is that the body, will begin to move.

47. Newton’s laws review Newton’s First Law - An object remains at rest, or in uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change by an externally imposed force. Newton’s first law describes an Equilibrium Situation. An Equilibrium Situation is one in which the acceleration of a body is equal to zero.

48. Newton’s laws review Newton’s Second Law – If there is a non-zero net force on a body, then it will accelerate. Newton’s Second Law describes a Non- equilibrium Situation. A Non-equilibrium Situation is one in which the acceleration of a body is not equal to zero.

49. Newton’s laws review Newton’s Third Law - for every action force there is an equal, but opposite, reaction force. Newton’s Third Law says forces must come in pairs. Paired force internal to a system have a Net Force of zero.

53. Friction Friction is a force like any other force Friction acts on materials that are in contact with each other Friction slows down motion Forces due to friction are always in the opposite direction of the motion.

54. Friction The force of friction depends on 1)The force pushing down (weight) 2)The surface materials in contact with each other
