Ch. 7 Forces and Motion in Two Dimensions Milbank High School
Sec. 7.1Forces in Two Dimensions • Objectives • Determine the force that produces equilibrium when three forces act on an object • Analyze the motion of an object on an inclined plane with and without friction
What is meant by two dimensions? • Consider a golf ball being hit out of a sand trap • It has a horizontal force AND a vertical force • We can solve for many different things using a combination of forces and vectors • Height of the ball • Time in the air • Velocity when it hits the ground
Equilibrant • A force exerted on an object to produce equilibrium • Same magnitude as the resultant force but opposite in direction
Solving problems in two dimensions • Draw it out! • Rearrange vectors to form a triangle if possible • Solve for the resultant vector • Opposite in direction • Example Problem Pg. 151
Sec. 7.2Projectile Motion • Objectives • Recognize that the vertical and horizontal motions of a projectile are independent • Relate the height, time in the air, and the initial velocity of a projectile using its vertical motion, then determine the range. • Explain how the shape of the trajectory of a moving object depends upon the frame of reference from which it is observed.
Projectiles have independent motions! • Projectiles have two velocities, one in the “x” direction, and one in the “y” direction • x is always constant • y will be changing due to the acceleration due to gravity
Displacement • y displacement y = yo - 1/2gt2 • x displacement x = vxot v = 25m/s
Velocity of projectiles launched horizontally • vx = initial velocity • vy = (-g)t • v = resultant velocity vector • Example Pg. 157
Effects of air resistance • We ignore the effects of air resistance for these problems • Sometimes it would make a large difference, other times it wouldn’t • Many projectiles modified so that they reduce air resistance
Projectiles launched at an Angle • Usually given angle of launch and velocity • What do we have to find? • Maximum height • Range • Horizontal distance • Flight time • hang time
Projectiles Launched at an Angle • Two initial velocity components • vxo • vyo How do we find these? vx = vo(cosθ) vy = vo(sinθ)
Projectiles Launched at an Angle • tup = vyo/g • ttotal = 2(tup) • Peak Height y = vyot - ½gt2 • Range R = vxot
Projectiles launched at an Angle • The Flight of a Ball • Example Problem Pg. 159
Sec. 7.3Circular Motion • Objectives • Explain the acceleration of an object moving in a circle at constant speed • Describe how centripetal acceleration depends upon the object’s speed and the radius of the circle • Recognize the direction of the force that causes centripetal acceleration • Explain how the rate of circular motion is changed by exerting torque on it.
Uniform Circular Motion • Movement of an object at constant speed around a circle with a fixed radius • Merry-go-round Circumference = 2*pi*Radius
Acceleration • Which direction? • Always towards the center
Centripetal Force • “Center seeking” • Net force towards the center that causes the object to try to seek the center • What force is pulling it in? • As a bucket of water is tied to a string and spun in a circle, the force of tension acting upon the bucket provides the centripetal force required for circular motion.
