Title: Forces and Newton


1
  • Forces and Newtons Laws of Motion

2
  • Force
  • A push or a pull.
  • Force is not a thing in itself, but rather an
    interaction between two objects.

3
Examples
  • A Flag being blown
  • by the wind
  • A jet engine propelling an airplane

4
Fact or Fiction?
  • Motion at a constant velocity requires a force.
  • If you apply a constant force to an object, it
    will move with a constant velocity.
  • If no forces act on it, a moving object will
    eventually stop.
  • Inertia is a force.

5
Forces
  • Push or a pull
  • Vector quantity
  • Contact forces- arise from physical contact with
    each other
  • Field (Noncontact) forces- force exerted even
    when not in direct contact (ex. Gravity,
    electrical force, magnetic forces)

6
Weight VS Mass

7
Mass
  • the amount of matter in an object
  • a constant property
  • a measure of the inertia
  • measured in kilograms (kg)

8
Weight
  • the force upon an object due to gravity
  • weight mass ? accel. due to gravity
  • Fw mg
  • measured in Newtons (N)

9
  • The weight of a 10 kg brick is...
  • A) 98 N
  • B) 10 kg
  • C) 9.8 kg
  • D) 10 N
  • E) 98 kg

10
Mass and Weight
  • On the Moon, the force of gravity is only 1/6 as
    strong as on the Earth.
  • In space you are practically weightless but your
    mass remains unchanged.
  • Your mass does not depend on where your are.
  • e.g. Earth, Moon, or space

11
Tension
  • Tension (T)- force that acts through a solid
    object such as a rope or chain directed along
    the rope and pulls equally on the objects on
    either end.
  • .

12
Normal Force
  • Normal Force (Fn)- contact force that always acts
    perpendicular to the surfaces that are touching

13
Free-Body Diagram
  • Free-body diagrams are drawings used to show the
    relative magnitude and direction of all forces
    acting upon an object in a given situation.

14
Basic Force Diagrams
A Car on a Level Surface All forces on the car
are vertical, so no horizontal force can be
generated.
A Car on a Banked Turn The normal force on the
car due to the road is no longer vertical, so a
component of the normal force acts in the
horizontal direction.
Normal force (N) - contact pressure that pushes
surfaces together. It is easier to drag a light
chair across a room than a heavy table. This is
because the weight of the table exerts a higher
normal force.
15
A book is at rest on a table
16
A girl is suspended motionless from a bar which
hangs from the ceiling by two ropes.
17
An egg is free-falling from a nest in a tree.
Neglect air resistance.
18
A flying squirrel is gliding (no wing flaps) from
a tree to the ground at constant velocity.
Consider air resistance.
19
A rightward force is applied to a book in order
to move it across a desk with a rightward
acceleration. Consider frictional forces. Neglect
air resistance.

Forces are Vectors too!
  • Consider the tow truck at the right. If the
    tensional force in the cable is 1000 N and if the
    cable makes a 60-degree angle with the
    horizontal, then what is the vertical component
    of force which lifts the car off the ground?
  • 866 N.

Net Force
Balanced No Net Force Fnet 0 N
  • Determined by combining ALL forces acting on an
    object.
  • Zero net force zero acceleration
  • If there is a net force, there will be an
    acceleration.

Unbalanced Net Force Fnet ? 0 N

Unbalanced Forces (non-zero net)
Imagine pushing your text book so that it would
slide across the desk
33
Equilibrium
  • Balance
  • In regards to motion an object has constant
    velocity if it is in equilibrium.
  • NO acceleration.
  • Types
  • Static Equilibrium
  • Dynamic Equilibrium

34
Equilibrium- net force is equal to zero
35
Static Equilibrium
  • Velocity is zero
  • Examples

Scales pushing up
Weighing yourself on a set of scales
Weight down
Car parked on an incline
Normal
Friction

Weight down
36
  • Dynamic Equilibrium
  • Velocity is nonzero and constant
  • Examples
  • Driving at constant velocity

Normal up
Friction
Force from road
Air resistance
Weight down
Terminal velocity when parachuting

37
Friction
  • The force that opposes the motion between two
    surfaces that are in contact.
  • Friction is the "evil monster" of all motion.
    Regardless of which direction something moves in,
    friction pulls it the other way.
  • Move something left, friction pulls right. Move
    something up, friction pulls down.
  • It appears as if nature has given us friction to
    stop us from moving anything.
  • Friction is actually a force that appears when
    there is relative motion between two objects.
  • Although two objects might look smooth,
    microscopically, they are very rough and jagged.

38
Friction
  • A force that opposes motion. Friction acts in a
    direction opposite to the object's direction in
    motion. Without friction, the object would
    continue to move at a constant speed forever
  • Static Friction when object is at rest
  • Kinetic Friction when object is moving
  • Sliding Friction when two surfaces
    slide one over the other
  • Rolling Friction when two surfaces
    slide one over the other

39
Science Friction
  • Friction (Ff)- contact force between two surfaces
    that always opposes motion
  • 2 types
  • Static friction (fs) keeps an object from
    moving (must be overcome to move an object at
    rest
  • Kinetic friction (fk) acts when an
    object is moving
  • Kinetic friction is weaker than static friction
  • Fklt Fs

40
Friction is not always a bad thing!
  • Walking! Your foot pushes backwards and friction
    opposes it by pushing it forward

41
Static (starting) Friction
  • The force that opposes the start of the motion.
  • Static means stationary ( not moving).

42
Kinetic (sliding) Friction
  • The force between surfaces in relative motion
  • For the same object, why is the force of kinetic
    friction less than the force of starting friction?

43
Coefficient of Friction
  • A constant that depends on the two surfaces in
    contact
  • Ff ?FN
  • ?(mu).coefficient of friction

44
Newtons First Law (1642-1727)
  • The Law of Inertia
  • A body remains at rest or moves in a straight
    line at a constant speed unless acted upon by a
    net force.
  • Objects do not accelerate unless a net force is
    applied.

45
Objects at Rest Remain at Rest

49
Newtons Second Law
  • The accel. of an object is directly proportional
    to the net force acting on the object, and
    inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Falling with Air Resistance
  • Air resistance increases with speed and increased
    cross-sectional area.

55
Terminal Velocity
  • When falling the force of air resistance becomes
    large enough to balance the force of gravity.
  • At this instant in time, there is no net force
    the object stops accelerating (see D below)
    terminal velocity has been reached.

56
  • Example
  • Light and heavy parachutists


57
Practice
http//www.freewebs.com/mathphyedu/14.bmp
  • A 0.02 kg bullet shot horizontally with a speed
    of 340 m/s enters a 1.2 kg apple that is 8.5 cm
    in diameter. If the bullet exits the apple with a
    perceived speed of 320 m/s, how much force was
    applied to the bullet by the apple? What was the
    acceleration of the apple?

58
Fact or Fiction??
  • When you kick a can, the can kicks you back with
    the same force?
  • When we jump the floor pushes us upward.
  • It is possible to get yourself off the floor or
    chair without an outside force being exerted on
    your body

59
Newtons Third Law
  • Action-Reaction
  • When one object exerts a force on another object,
    the second object exerts a force of equal
    strength in the opposite direction on the first
    object.

60
Newtons Third Law of Motion
For every action, there is always an equal
(magnitude) and opposite (direction) reaction.
action or reaction refers to
force.
Action/Reaction forces do NOT act on the SAME
object!
61
Reaction road pushes on tire
Action tire pushes on road

62
Reaction gases push on rocket
Action rocket pushes on gases

63
Action- Reaction Forces
  • Do Action-Reaction forces cancel each other?
  • No, they are acting on different objects. Forces
    can only be added together when they are acting
    on the same object.

Action earth pulls on kid
Reaction kid pulls on earth

65
Newtons 3rd Law of Motion
Action Force A guy is pushing a ball leftwards
Reaction Force the ball is pushing the guy
rightwards
66
  • Horse pulls on cartcart pulls on horse. How
    does the cart ever move forward?
  • Use Newtons 2nd and 3rd laws of motion to
    explain.

67
Identify at least six pairs of action-reaction
force pairs in the following diagram
68
Tug-a-war
  • If Fido and Rover play tug-a war, how do the
    pulls of the dogs compare?
  • If each dog pulls with 50 N of force, what is the
    tension force in the middle of the rope (between
    the dogs)?

69
  • While driving, Mrs. Ingle observed a bug striking
    the windshield of her car. The bug hits the
    windshield and the windshield hits the bug. Which
    of the two forces is greater the force on the
    bug or the force on the windshield? EXPLAIN!

Putting Newton's Laws of Motion Together
  • An unbalanced force must be exerted for a rocket
    to lift off from a launch pad or for a craft in
    space to change speed or direction (First Law).
  • The amount of thrust (force) produced by a rocket
    engine will be determined by the rate at which
    the mass of the rocket fuel burns and the speed
    of the gas escaping the rocket (Second Law).
  • The reaction, or motion, of the rocket is equal
    to and in the opposite direction of the action,
    or thrust, from the engine (Third Law).
