Motion
What is motion anyway? Motion is a change in position, measured by distance and time. n Anything moving is in motion. n
Distance n How can I find out how far I’ve gone?
What changes motion? Force!! n A force is a push or pull that can change motion n A force can move an object A force can transfer energy to an object n For example, pushing on a wall doesn’t move the wall, but energy is being transferred.
Unbalanced Forces In order for a force to move an object, there must be unbalanced forces. n Like tug of war…the winners are pulling the other team with more force; therefore the pulling forces are unbalanced. n
How can force affect motion? Resistance forces (friction or wind) that oppose motion can slow down motion. n A force in the same direction can speed up motion. n
Speed We talk about speed everyday. n Speed is the distance traveled in a unit of time. n Speed affect the energy of an object. The faster it moves, the more kinetic energy it has. n Speed = distance Avg. Speed= d 2 -d 1 time t 2 -t 1 n
Kinetic Energy – Energy of Motion Speed and mass affect the kinetic energy of an object. n If two objects are moving at the same speed, but one object has a greater mass, then the object with the greater mass will have more kinetic energy. Greater mass=more kinetic energy n The more mass in an object, the more force needed to move it. n
Velocity and Speed are like fraternal twins- very similar, but with important differences. n Velocity is speed in a given direction. n n n 35 mph NORTH 4 km/sec EAST
Which is which? 100 m/s right n 1500 km/s n 65 m/s north n 3000 km/s n Velocity Speed
Acceleration n Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.
Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching. n Can be caused by wind, water, surface texture, etc. n
Resistance Force Have you ever ridden down the street on your bike and felt the wind push against you? n That’s air resistance! n Air resistance is the frictional force from the air that resists forward motion n
Momentum n Momentum is the property that a moving object has because of its mass and velocity. n All moving objects have momentum.
Sir Isaac Newton n Isaac is famous for his discovery of gravity. He is also known for his three laws that explain all aspects of motion.
Newton’s First Law n An object at rest will remain at rest, and a moving object will remain at a constant velocity unless unbalanced forces act on it. ** Inertia- the tendency of an object to remain in motion or stay at rest.
Newton’s Second Law n Motion produced by unbalanced forces. n The units of force are “Newtons” 1 N = 1 kg x m/s s 1 N is the force on a 1 kg mass that will accelerate that mass at 1 m/s 2. n
Newton’s Third Law n For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
