4. Forces Affect Motion Force = a push or a pull Force = a push or a pull

5. Forces Affect Motion Force = a push or a pull Force = a push or a pull –forces have a strength and direction –Forces are measured in units called Newtons (N) 1 N 20 N Small force pushing to the right Big force pushing to the left

6. Forces Affect Motion Balanced forces = equal forces working on 1 object in opposite directions Balanced forces = equal forces working on 1 object in opposite directions 100 N Total (net) force on rope = 0 N Rope’s motion does not change (it is in equilibrium) -

7. Force Unbalanced forces = unequal forces cause an object to accelerate Unbalanced forces = unequal forces cause an object to accelerate 120 N100 N Total (net) force on rope = 20 N to the right Rope moves to the right (it is in disequilibrium) -

12. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object

13. Which force is acting on the ball rolling across the counter? a) Downward force of gravity b) Backward force of friction c) Upward force of the counter d) All of these forces are acting on the ball

14. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Friction = force exerted when 2 surfaces rub against each other

15. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Friction = force exerted when 2 surfaces rub against each other Sliding = solid surfaces slide over each other Sliding = solid surfaces slide over each other motion friction

16. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Friction = force exerted when 2 surfaces rub against each other Sliding Sliding Rolling = object rolls over a solid surface Rolling = object rolls over a solid surface F M

17. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Friction = force exerted when 2 surfaces rub against each other Sliding Sliding Rolling Rolling Fluid = object moving Fluid = object moving through a fluid (liquid or gas) M F

18. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Friction Sliding Sliding Rolling Rolling Fluid Fluid –Force of friction depends on: types of surfaces types of surfaces how hard the surfaces push together how hard the surfaces push together

21. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Gravity = force that pulls objects toward each other

22. Resistance Forces Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object Resistance forces = forces that go against the motion of an object –Gravity = force that pulls objects toward each other –Force of gravity depends on: objects’ mass objects’ mass distance between distance betweenobjects
