Forces • Kinematics: Describes how an object moves • Dynamics: Describes why an object moves • Newton’s three laws of motion, describe the “dynamics” of why objects move
Forces and Interaction • Force – a “push or pull” • Contact Force – you physically push on a wall • Long-range Force – like magnets or gravity • Force – a vector quantity. Has what two parts. • SI Unit – the Newton abbreviated as “N” • Superposition of Forces : forces combine according to vector addition
4 Types Forces • Gravitational forces • The Earth pulls and holds the moon in orbit • The moon pulls and causes tide changes • Electromagnetic forces • due to electric charges, both static and moving. • Strong Nuclear Forces • holds particles in the nucleus together.(Strongest of the 4) • Weak Nuclear Forces • Radioactive decay
Newton’s 1st Law • An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. • Here, the girl is at rest until acted on by the force imposed by the cannonball.
Newton’s 1st Law • An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. • Here, the skateboard/log combination is at rest until acted on by the force imposed by the rocket.
Newton’s 1st Law • An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. • Consider a baseball that is pitched to a batter. What force causes the ball to change direction? Hit
Newton’s 1st Law • An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. • Consider the space shuttle turning while in space flight. What produces the forces?
Newton’s 1st law • An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force. • Consider the space shuttle when landing. What produces the forces?
Multimedia • The car and the wall • The motorcyclist • The truck and the ladder
Weight and Mass Mass: A measure of the amount of matter in an object has. Symbol (m) Unit (kg) Weight: The gravitational force exerted on a body Symbol (W) Unit (N Newton)
Weight A Motor cycle weights 2450N. What is its mass?
Newton’s 2nd Law • Acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force. • Acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
Newton’s 2nd Law • Acceleration depends on both mass and the net force
Acceleration depends on net force • A force of 10N accelerates the box
Acceleration depends on net force • A force of 20N accelerates the box twice as fast
Acceleration depends on mass • A force of 10N accelerates the box
Acceleration depends on mass • A force of 10N accelerates the smaller box faster

Free-body diagrams A girl is suspended motionless from a bar which hangs from the ceiling by two ropes. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:
Free-body diagrams An egg is free-falling from a nest in a tree. Neglect air resistance. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:
A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk at constant velocity. Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. A free-body diagram for this situation looks like this:
Net Force • If there is no movement • The net force is zero • If there is no acceleration • The net force is zero • If there is acceleration • The net force is not zero.
Newton’s 1st Law Equilibrium Situation • An object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts on it. • An object in motion will continue in a straight line until acted on by some “outside” force.
Newton’s Second Law – Non-Equilibrium Situation • The result of a Non-Equilibrium situation is that the body, will begin to move.

Newton’s Second Law – Non-Equilibrium Situation • Two 50g masses are placed 40cm on either side of a fulcrum. What is the Net force? • If left mass slides 20cm right, what happens? • If the left mass slides 20cm right and grows to 100g, what type of situation is this? Equilibrium Non-Equilibrium
Newton’s 3rd Law • When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second exerts a force on the first that is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. • For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action. • Action – Reaction force pair
Newton’s 3rd LawExample • A book rests on a table • The force from the weight of the book pushes down. • The table provides a supportive force up. • Normal force (N) is perpendicular to the surface

Friction • Friction is a force like any other force • Friction acts on materials that are in contact with each other • Friction slows down motion • Forces due to friction are always in the opposite direction of the motion.
Friction • There are two types of friction: • Kinetic (Sliding) friction: The force that opposes the motion of a moving object • Static friction: The force that oppose the start of motion.
Friction • The force of friction depends on • The force pushing down (weight) • The surface materials in contact with each other
