1
Newton and his laws
2
Friction Paragraphs Hand up if you have it done
3
Newton
4
Life Scholar –Brilliant mind –Became Head of Oxford Colleges in England –Royal Society of England –Master everything in his age Teacher –Help to develop whole branch of Mathematics –Newtonian physics Alchemist
5
Newton’s laws of motion Clearly laid down the rules that govern why things move in our world Rules start falling apart when at microscopic scale or at high speeds
6
1 st law of motion An object at ______, stays at ______ An object in motion, stays at a _______ rate Unless A net outside ________ acts upon it.
7
How will their motion compare?
8
What forces effect their ability to roll down a hallway?
9
Friction with ground Air Resistance
10
A bowling ball will move with nearly constant velocity No significant friction from the ground or air resistance to help change the bowling ball’s motion
11
A Tennis ball will slow down Both friction and air resistance has a greater effect on the ball. It has much less mass
12
Mass Mass of an object = the amount of material that makes up the object The more massive the object, the harder it is to change its motion
13
What Does Inertia mean? The Res
14
Inertia is the measure of an object’s resistance to change in motion
15
Inertia Trick Need –Weight (Washer), quarter –Cup –Index Card
16
Mass and Inertia The more massive an object, the more inertia it has
17
Sumo and inertia
18
American Sumo

Assignment for Wednesday Find 10 examples in life of objects demonstrating the first law 10 different objects, 10 different actions Denote if object is stopped, at constant velocity or accelerating If accelerating, indicate the cause
20
2 nd Law of motion The amount of acceleration of an object is related to: –Its mass As mass increases, acceleration decreases –The net force exerted on it As net force increases, acceleration increases
21
a = F net m F net = m a
22
Units Some units that are made out of 2 or more fundamental units are renamed after a Famous Scientist Units of Force –1 Kg (m/s 2 ) = 1N (Newton)
23
Weight is a force Weight is the measure of the Force of gravity To find your weight in Newtons: –Take your weight and divide it by 2.2 –Take the result and multiply it by 9.8
24
What weighs 1000 N?
25
Football player (220 lbs)
26
What weighs 100 N?
27
Freshman backpacks
28
What weighs 10 N?
29
The average textbook
30
What weighs 1 N?
31
A smallish apple
32
Homework in book What force is necessary to accelerate a 1250 kg car at a rate of 40 m/s 2 ?
33
Answer? Have m, a Need F Use f = ma F= 1250 x 40 = 50,000 N
34
Question #2 What is the mass of an object if a force of 34N produces an acceleration of 4 m/s 2 ?
35
Answer #2 8.5 kg
36
Mathematical equation for Weight of an object Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity On earth’s surface, acceleration due to gravity is = to 10 m/s 2
37
Calculate your mass value Take your weight in Newtons and divide by 10
38
Acceleration due to gravity Paper and Book test Which drops faster? Any other forces at work besides gravity (weight)?
39
New Homework Page 369 –Problems 22-29
40
Newton’s 3rd Law For every __________, there is an equal and opposite ________ If the action force is a pen pressing against a piece of paper, then the reaction force is_______
