PHYSICS UNIT 2: DYNAMICS(Explaining Motion)

FORCES Force: a "push" or a "pull“

unit: Newtons, N (1 N is about ¼ lb) vector - includes direction contact forces and field forces (act

over a distance) net force: total effect of all forces

acting on an object

FORCES Typical Forces

gravity, FG: object’s weight, always directed toward center of earth (FG=mg mass × acceleration due to gravity)

normal force, FN: supporting force a surface exerts on an object, always directed upward perpendicular to the surface

tension, FT: force transmitted by a rope or chain, directed along the rope, constant throughout the rope

FORCES Free body diagrams: show just one object &

the forces acting on the object (NOT forces the object is exerting on other things) example: car hitting a wall

Examples Apple on a table Rock under

water Block on a hill Water skier Child pulled

forward at an angle on a sled

NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION

The Law of Inertia (1st Law): an object’s velocity stays constant unless acted upon by a net external force inertia: resistance to change in

motion (mass is a measure of inertia, more mass = more inertia)

Example of Newton’s 1st Law

NEWTON’S 2nd LAW OF MOTION

The Law of Acceleration (2nd Law): a net force causes an acceleration proportional to the force, in the same direction, and inversely proportional to mass. Fnet = ma

Fnet: sum of all forces or net force (N), m: mass (kg), a: acceleration (m/s2) 1 N = 1 kg·m/s2

Second The greater the force, the greater the

acceleration The greater the mass, the greater the

force needed for the same acceleration Calculated by: F = ma (F = force, m = mass, a =

acceleration)

NEWTON’S 2nd LAW OF MOTION

NEWTON’S 3rd LAW OF MOTION

The Law of Interaction (3rd Law): for every action force from one object on another, there is an equal magnitude, opposite direction reaction force from the 2nd object back on the 1staction:

hammer hits anvilreaction: anvil hits hammer

NEWTON’S 3rd LAW OF MOTION

Law of Interaction (3rd Law) action & reaction forces do not

balance each other - they are on different bodies (ex: car pulling a trailer)

equal force does not mean equal acceleration - depends on mass (ex: person jumping off the ground)

Examples of Newton’s 3rd law

FORCES Finding the Net Force (total of all forces on an

object) draw a free body diagram identify & label x & y axes separate forces into x and y parts – Fx=Fcos

Fy=Fsin add all x forces, add all y forces equilibrium: no net force – x forces add up to

zero, y forces add up to zero

NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION

Law of Inertia (1st Law) objects slow & stop, or require

continued force to keep moving, due to friction

FRICTION Friction Force, Ff:

resistance to motion between objects in contact with each other acts parallel to contact

surface, opposite to motion

caused by uneven surfaces, molecular attraction

FRICTION

static friction: resistance to starting motion (at rest) beneficial (walking, building, eating, wheels rolling)

kinetic friction: resistance to continued motion (sliding) undesirable (machines, moving furniture, wheels

skidding)

kinetic friction < static friction

FRICTION coefficient of friction,: constant

that depends on type of surfaces in contact s: coefficient of static friction k: coefficient of kinetic friction Ff = FN (friction force = ×

normal force)
