1. Newton’s 1 st Law of Motion

2. Newton’s 1 st Law Newton’s 1 st Law: An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion, unless acted upon by an unbalanced (i.e. net or outside) force This motion is in a straight line, at a constant speed Often called an objects inertia

3. So What Is Inertia? Inertia can also be described as: The resistance an object has to changes in its state of motion State of Motion? – An object can either be in motion (traveling in a direction at a constant speed) or at rest (stationary, thus NO speed) More Mass = More Inertia = More Resistant to Changing Its Motion

4. What Does Inertia Have To Do With Rugby? Jonah Lomu: – New Zealand All Blacks – Mass: 120 kg (translates to 273 lbs) – Height: 6’ 5’’ – Speed: Runs 100 meters in 10.8 seconds (Carl Lewis: 100 meters in 9.88 seconds)

5. What Does Inertia Have To Do With Rugby? Jonah Lomu: – Very Big (lots of mass – 120 kg) – Lots of Inertia – Because of Large Mass (i.e., large amount of inertia) he is very resistant to changes in motion HARD TO STOP WHEN MOVING HARD TO START MOVING WHEN AT REST

6. What Does Inertia Have To Do With Rugby? So when Jonah Lomu is in motion and encounters someone less massive (i.e., with less INERTIA)… HE IS MORE RESISTANT TO THEIR ATTEMPTS TO CHANGE HIS STATE OF MOTION (i.e., bring him to a rest)

7. What Does Inertia Have To Do With Rugby? So when Jonah Lomu is at rest and encounters someone less massive (i.e., with less INERTIA)… He is more resistant to their attempts to change his motion.

8. What Does Inertia Have To Do With Rugby? Because of his mass, it is harder to change his direction when in motion. WHY? – INERTIA! Straight Line Motion Inertia resists changes in motion (in this case the DIRECTION of the motion) The GREATER the MASS, the HARDER it is to CHANGE DIRECTION

10. Newton’s 2nd Law of Moton

11. Newton’s 2nd Law The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net external force acting on the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object or: F net =ma

12. Forces A push or pull The cause of an acceleration Cause of a change in an object’s state of motion – Cause objects to speed up or slow down – Cause a change of direction Unit of force: Newton (N)

13. Types of Forces Common forces: – Applied – (F A or F) – Generic name for any force that is applied – Tension - (F t or T) - The force that a “string” pulls on an object – Normal Force - (F N or N) - Force that a surface applies to an object (the direction is  to the surface) – Weight – (F g or w ) – The force due to gravity (mg) – Friction - (F f or f ) - To be defined later

14. F A, applied force  A physical push or a pull

15. F N, Normal Force (N) A force that a surface applies to an object “Normal” means perpendicular The direction of the normal force is perpendicular to the surface surface

16. Tension - (F t or T)  Tension (force) in a string or rope  Strings only pull

17. Free Body Diagrams Used to analyze the forces affecting the motion of a single object Shows only the forces acting on an object

18. Free Body Diagrams One object only Shows only forces acting on the object Forces represented as arrows F g down, F N perpendicular to surface

19. Examples

20. Friction Force of Friction: F f, Unit: N – Newton μ: Coefficient of Friction (Unitless) Static vs Kinetic Static Friction –Two surfaces at rest relative to one another (not sliding) Always parallel to the surface Kinetic Friction – Two surfaces moving relative to one another (Sliding) Always parallel to the surface and opposes the motion

22. Common μ ’s Materials μ Oak on oak, dry0.30 Steel on steel, dry0.41 greasy0.12 Steel on ice0.01 Rubber on asphalt, Dry1.07 wet0.95 Rubber on ice0.005

23. Sample Problems It takes 50 N to pull a 6.0 kg object along a desk at constant speed. What is the coefficient of friction? The coefficient of friction between two materials is 0.35. A 5.0 kg object made of one material is being pulled along a table made of another material. What is the force of friction?

24. Newton’s 3 rd Law Every action force has an opposite and equal reaction force. – The two forces are called force pairs. – They act on different objects. – How do we walk by pushing backwards? – Why do cannons recoil when fired?

25. Challenge Is the force of gravity that the Earth exerts on the Moon greater than, equal to, or less than the force the Moon exerts on the Earth?

26. How does a hammer push a nail into wood in light of Newton’s 3 rd Law?

27. Centripetal Force a c, centripetal acceleration (m/s 2 ) – “ Center seeking ” – Necessary to keep the object traveling in a circle F c, centripetal force (N) – Newton ’ s 2 nd Law Newton ’ s 2 nd Law for Circles NOTE: CENTRIFUGAL FORCE IS AN IMAGINARY FORCE TO EXPLAIN INERTIA! DOES NOT EXIST!

28. Centripetal Force The centripetal acceleration is caused by another force such as: – Friction – Tension – Normal Force – Gravity

29. Centripetal Force Steps to solve centripetal force problems: – Draw a free body diagram – Identify the force causing the centripetal force – Set the causal force = centripetal force eq. – Solve for unknown
