Forces Diagrams and Types
By the end of this lesson you will be able to:Model verbally or visually the properties of a system based on its substructure and to relate this to changes in the system properties over time as external variables are changed.
Apply F = mg to calculate the gravitational force on an object with mass m in a gravitational field of strength g in the context of the effects of a net force on objects and systems.
By the end of this lesson you will know/understand:• Forces are described by vectors, detected by their influence on the motion of an object,
Forces have magnitude and direction.• Freebody diagrams are useful tools for visualizing forces being exerted on a single
object and writing the equations that represent a physical situation, An object can be drawn as if it was extracted from its environment and the interactions with the environment identified, A force exerted on an object can be represented as an arrow whose length represents the magnitude of the force and whose direction shows the direction of the force.
• Contact forces result from the interaction of one object touching another object and they arise from interatomic electric forces. These forces include tension, friction, normal, spring
• Gravitational mass is the property of an object or a system that determines the strength of the gravitational interaction with other objects, systems, or gravitational fields. The gravitational mass of an object determines the amount of force exerted on the object by a gravitational field.

Types of Forces
Contact Forces Field ForcesFrictionTensionNormalAir Resistance usually ignoredAppliedSpring
GravityElectricalMagnetic
Symbol: FUnit: Newtons (N) = 1 kg*m/s2
must be in contact!!!! ... no contact, no force ... think about what is touching it
is it near ... large mass, charges, magnet
Applied Force - Contact
FA FBOY F1
An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object
must be in contact!!!! ... no contact, no applied force
ex: you kick a soccer ball it sails through the air...not feeling applied force while in the air!!!
Normal Force - Contactin math normal means perpendicular
Force exerted by a surface, the force is always perpendicular to the surface
must be in contact!!!! ... no surface contact, no normal force
Symbol: N ... sometimes FN
Frictional Force - ContactThe resistance an object feels while moving across a surface to through air or a viscous (liquidy) substance
• ALWAYS acts in the OPPOSITE direction of movement or desired movement
• Acts Parallel to the surface/movement
Symbol: Ff
Air Resistance: subcategory of friction... same rules
Reference Table:
Spring Force - Contact
- because force is a vector and the force acts in the opposite direction of the stretch/compress
force from a stretched or compressed spring
Symbol: Fs
distance from equilibrium
Gravitational Force - NONContact
WEIGHTSymbols: Fg or often W
• ALL OBJECTS FEEL GRAVITY!!!!
• Weight is different from mass!!!
• Mass is the same everywhere in the universe, weight however can change depending on location (less weight on moon)
• Always acts center of mass to center of mass (on Earth that means straight down)
• On Earth you may sometimes feel heavier but, if your mass and location (Earth) didn't change then you weight didn't change
W = Fg = mgg = 9.8 m/sm = mass ON EARTH
Electrostatic Force - NONContact
Symbol: Fe or FE
The force of attraction or repulsion from a charged object
opposites attract ... likes repel
Free Body Diagram
• A diagram which shows all the forces acting on an object• The object is represented by a dot or box.• Each force is represented using an arrow pointing in the correct direction starting from the dot/box• Bigger arrow = Bigger Force
Free Body DiagramWhen preparing to start a forces problem
get into the IMMEDIATE habit of sketching a free-body diagram
relationships ‐ double mass = double weight, half x = have spring force
connections ‐ acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s/s from unit 1, only force acting in the vertical during free fall so acceleration during free fall, vector like displacement, velocity, acceleration
real world examples ‐ all fbd examples ; ideal springs vs. real world springs
