2. Ch. 4 Laws of Motion I. First two laws of motion “If I have seen far, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants.” - Sir Isaac Newton (referring to Galileo)

3. Forces Forces can change motion.  Start movement, stop movement, or change the direction of movement  Cause an object in motion to speed up or slow down

4. Newton’s First Law Experimentation led Galileo to the idea that objects maintain their state of motion or rest. Newton developed the idea further, in what is now known as Newton’s first law of motion:

5. B. Newton’s First Law Newton’s First Law of Motion  “Law of Inertia” Inertia  tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion  increases as mass increases

6. Newton’s First Law Which object in each pair has more inertia?  A baseball at rest or a tennis ball at rest Answer: the baseball  A tennis ball moving at 125 mi/h or a baseball at rest Answer: the baseball

7. What do you think? Imagine the following two situations: –Pushing a puck across an air hockey table –Pushing a book across a lab table What should your finger do in each case to maintain a constant speed for the object as it moves across the table or desk? (Choose from below.) –A quick push or force, then release the object –Maintain a constant force as you push the object –Increase or decrease the force as you push the object Explain your choice for the puck and the book.

27. C. Free-Fall Free-Fall  when an object is influenced only by the force of gravity Weightlessness  sensation produced when an object and its surroundings are in free-fall  object is not weightless! CUP DEMO

28. C. Free-Fall Weightlessness  surroundings are falling at the same rate so they don’t exert a force on the object

29. ConcepTest 1 TRUE or FALSE: An astronaut on the Space Shuttle feels weightless because there is no gravity in space. FALSE! There is gravity which is causing the Shuttle to free-fall towards the Earth. She feels weightless because she’s free-falling at the same rate.

34. A. Newton’s Third Law Problem:  How can a horse pull a cart if the cart is pulling back on the horse with an equal but opposite force? NO!!!  Aren’t these “balanced forces” resulting in no acceleration?

35. A. Newton’s Third Law  forces are equal and opposite but act on different objects  they are not “balanced forces”  the movement of the horse depends on the forces acting on the horse Explanation:

48. Do Now TRUE or FALSE? The object shown in the diagram must be at rest since there is no net force acting on it. FALSE! A net force does not cause motion. A net force causes a change in motion, or acceleration. Taken from “The Physics Classroom” © Tom Henderson, 1996-2001.The Physics Classroom
