Newton’s 1 st Law of Motion

Newton’s 1 st Law of Motion

Facts about Force • • Unit is the NEWTON(N) Is by definition a push

Facts about Force • • Unit is the NEWTON(N) Is by definition a push or a pull Can exist during physical contact (Tension, Friction, Applied Force) Can exist with NO physical contact, called FIELD FORCES ( gravitational, electric, etc)

Newton’s First Law – The Law of Inertia INERTIA – a quantity of matter,

Newton’s First Law – The Law of Inertia INERTIA – a quantity of matter, also called MASS. Italian for “LAZY”. Unit for MASS = kilogram. Weight or Force due to Gravity is how your MASS is effected by gravity. NOTE: MASS and WEIGHT are NOT the same thing. MASS never changes When an object moves to a different planet. What is the weight of an 85. 3 -kg person on earth? On Mars (g=3. 2 m/s/s)?

Newton’s First Law An object in motion remains in motion in a straight line

Newton’s First Law An object in motion remains in motion in a straight line and at a constant speed OR an object at rest remains at rest, UNLESS acted upon by an EXTERNAL (unbalanced) Force. There are TWO conditions here and one constraint. Condition #1 – The object CAN move but must be at a CONSTANT SPEED Condition #2 – The object is at REST Constraint – As long as the forces are BALANCED!!!!! And if all the forces are balanced the SUM of all the forces is ZERO. The bottom line: There is NO ACCELERATION in this case AND the object must be at EQILIBRIUM ( All the forces cancel out).

FN • Weight(mg) – Always drawn from the center, straight down • Force Normal(FN) – A surface force always drawn perpendicular to a surface. • Tension(T or FT) – force in ropes and always drawn AWAY from object. • Friction(Ff)- Always drawn opposing the motion.

Newton’s First Law – The Law of “EQUILIBRIUM” Since the Fnet = 0, a system moving at a constant speed or at rest MUST be at “EQUILIBRIUM”. TIPS for solving problems • Draw a FBD • Resolve anything into COMPONENTS • Write equations of equilibrium • Solve for unknowns

Newton’s 2 nd Law of Motion

Newton’s 2 nd Law of Motion

Newton’s 2 nd Law "The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the

Newton’s 2 nd Law "The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the NET FORCE AND inversely proportional to the mass. " Acceleration is directly proportional to the NET Force. DIRECTLY = They do the same thing. If the force increases, the acceleration increases. If the force decreases, the acceleration decreases. Acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass. INVERSELY = They do the opposite. If the mass decreases, the acceleration will increase. If the mass increases, the acceleration will decrease.

Newton’s 2 nd Law N. S. L. works based on these direct and inverse

Newton’s 2 nd Law N. S. L. works based on these direct and inverse relationships. As 2 of the variable change, ONE of them must remain constant. If the force is constant, the acceleration and mass change as shown above. If we add a second dog pulling with 100 N just like the first dog, we could pull the sled with twice the acceleration, provided the mass of the sled was constant.

Tips Draw a free body diagram 2. Break vectors into components if needed 3. Find the NET force by adding and subtracting forces that are on the same axis as the acceleration. 4. Set net force equal to “ma” this is called writing an EQUATION OF MOTION. NOTE: To avoid negative numbers, always subtract the smaller forces from the larger one. 1.

Newton’s Third Law “For every action there is an EQUAL and OPPOSITE reaction. � This law focuses on action/reaction pairs (forces) � They NEVER cancel out All you do is SWITCH the wording! • PERSON on WALL • WALL on PERSON

Newton’s 3 rd Law This figure shows the force during a collision between a truck and a train. You can clearly see the forces are EQUAL and OPPOSITE. To help you understand the law better, look at this situation from the point of view of Newton’s Second Law. There is a balance between the mass and acceleration. One object usually has a LARGE MASS and a SMALL ACCELERATION, while the other has a SMALL MASS (comparatively) and a LARGE ACCELERATION.

TWO types of Friction � Static – Friction that keeps an object at rest and prevents it from moving � Kinetic – Friction that acts during motion

Force of Friction � The Force of Friction is directly related to the Force

Force of Friction � The Force of Friction is directly related to the Force Normal. � Mostly due to the fact that BOTH are surface forces The coefficient of friction is a unitless constant that is specific to the material type and usually less than one. Note: Friction ONLY depends on the MATERIALS sliding against each other, NOT on surface area.
