1. Forces and Motion Forces in One Dimension

2. Force and Motion  Force  Force is a push or pull exerted on an object  Cause objects to speed up, slow down, or change direction  Force exerted on an object causes velocity to change  Push harder on object, greater effect on motion  Direction of force also matters  F is a vector  Represents size and direction of force  F represents only magnitude

3. Force and Motion  Force and Motion  Object of interest called system  Everything around object that exerts forces on it called external world

4. Force and Motion  Contact Forces and Field Forces  Contact forces  Exist when object from external world touches system and exerts force on it  Field forces  Exist when a force is exerted on an object without contact

5. Force and Motion  Free-Body Diagram  A free-body diagram is a physical model which represents forces acting on a system

6. Force and Motion  Force and Acceleration F = ma  One unit of force causes 1-kg mass to accelerate at 1 m/s 2 =1 kg·m/s 2 or 1N (newton)

7. Force and Motion  Combining Forces  When force vectors are in the same direction, they can be added  If forces are in the opposite directions, the vectors are subtracted and drawn in direction of greater force  The vector is the sum of all the forces is net force, F net

8. Force and Motion  Newton’s Second Law  “The acceleration of an object proportional to net force exerted on it and inversely proportional to its mass”

9. Force and Motion  Newton’s Second Law  Identify all forces acting on object  Draw a free-body diagram showing the direction and relative strength of each force acting on the system  Add the forces to find the net force  Use Newton’s second law to calculate the acceleration  If necessary, use kinematics to find the velocity or position of the object

10. Force and Motion  Newton’s First Law  “An object that is at rest will remain at rest, and an object that is moving will continue to move in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the net force acting on that object is zero”  The motion of an object with force acting on it will continue moving. A stationary object won’t move without force added.  Galileo did many experiments, and concluded that with zero resistance, horizontal motion would never stop  Newton generalized Galileo’s results

11. Force and Motion  Newton’s First Law  Newton’s First Law is sometimes called law of inertia.  Inertia is tendency of an object to resist change  Forces are the results of interactions between two objects; they are not properties of single objects, so inertia cannot be a force  If net force on object is zero, object is in equilibrium  Only if the object is at rest or constant velocity  Law of inertia identifies net force as something that disturbs equilibrium

12. Force and Motion  Types of Forces

13. Using Newton’s Laws  Using Newton’s Second Law  Newton’s second law tells you that the weight force, F g, exerted on an object of mass m is F g = mg  Consider a free-falling ball in midair. It is touching nothing and air resistance can be neglected, the only force acting on it is F g  The ball’s acceleration is g. So, Newton’s second law, then becomes F g = mg

14. Using Newton’s Laws  Using Newton’s Second Law  How does a bathroom scale work?  When you stand on the scale, the spring in the scale exerts an upward force on you because you are in contact with it  Because you are not accelerating, the net force acting on you must be zero  The spring force, F sp, upward must be the same magnitude as your weight, F g, downward

15. Using Newton’s Laws  Using Newton’s Second Law  Anudja is holding a stuffed dog with a mass of 0.30 kg, when Sarah decides that she wants it and tries to pull it away from Anudja. If Sarah pulls horizontally on the dog with a force of 10.0 N and Anudja pulls with a horizontal force of 11.0 N, what is the horizontal acceleration of the dog?

16. Using Newton’s Laws  Using Newton’s Second Law

17. Using Newton’s Laws  Drag Force and Terminal Velocity  When an object moves through any fluid, such as air or water, the fluid exerts a drag force on the moving object in the direction opposite to its motion  A drag force is the force exerted by a fluid on the object moving through the fluid  This force is dependent on the motion of the object, the properties of the object, and the properties of the fluid (viscosity and temperature) that the object is moving through  So, as a falling ball’s velocity increases, so does the drag force. The constant velocity that is reached when the drag force equals the force of gravity is called the terminal velocity

18. Using Newton’s Laws  Drag Force and Terminal Velocity

19. Using Newton’s Laws  Using Newton’s Second Law  If the mass of a person on Earth is 20 kg, what will be his mass on the Moon? (Gravity on the Moon is six times less than the gravity on Earth.)  Your mass is 100 kg, and you are standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator. What is the scale reading when the elevator is falling freely?

20. Interaction Forces  Identifying Interaction Forces  When you exert a force on an object, that object exerts an equal and opposite force on you  F A on B and F B on A are an interaction pair  Two forces in opposite directions with equal magnitude, are called action-reaction pair

21. Interaction Forces  Newton’s Third Law  Force of A on B equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of force of B on A  “Two forces in pair act on different objects and are equal and opposite.” F A on B = – F B on A

22. Interaction Forces  Earth Acceleration  When a softball with a mass of 0.18 kg is dropped, its acceleration toward Earth is equal to g, the acceleration due to gravity. What is the force on Earth due to the ball, and what is Earth’s resulting acceleration? Earth’s mass is 6.0×10 24 kg.

23. Interaction Forces  Forces of Ropes and Strings  Tension - force exerted by string or rope  At any point in rope, tension forces pulling equally in both directions

24. Interaction Forces  The Normal Force  Normal force – perpendicular contact force exerted by a surface on another object  Important when calculating resistance

25. Interaction Forces  Identifying Interaction Forces  If a stone is hung from a rope with no mass, at which place on the rope will there be the most tension?
