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. .

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

Basic Force Diagrams A Car on a Level Surface All forces on the car

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 greater normal force.

Net Force Balanced = No Net Force = Fnet = 0 N Unbalanced = 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. http: //4. bp. blogspot. com/_f.

Friction • The force that opposes the motion between two surfaces that are in

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 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.

Friction • A force that opposes motion. Friction acts in a direction opposite to

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: – Rolling Friction:

Newton’s First Law (1642 -1727) • “The Law of Inertia” • A body remains

Newton’s 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.

Newton’s 1 st Law of Motion Objects at rest remain at rest and objects in motion remain in motion, unless acted upon by an outside force. http: //talesfromechocanyon. blogspot. com/2007_03_02_archive. html

Falling with Air Resistance & Terminal Velocity • When falling the force of air

Falling with Air Resistance & 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.

Newton’s Third Law • Action-Reaction • When one object exerts a force on another

Newton’s 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.

Newton’s Third Law of Motion For every action, there is always a reaction of equal (magnitude) and opposite (direction) reaction. “action” or “reaction” refers to force. Action/Reaction forces do NOT act on the SAME object!

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. http: //quest. nasa. gov/space/teachers/rockets/principles. html

Arianesp ace. jpg • 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). http: //quest. nasa. gov/space/teachers/rockets/principles. html
