    Force Motion4878

    Uploaded by

    IRIS
    This document discusses motion and forces. It defines key terms like speed, velocity, balanced forces, and unbalanced forces. It explains that balanced forces result in no change in velocity, while unbalanced forces cause acceleration. Friction is introduced as a force that opposes motion. Newton's three laws of motion are summarized, including inertia, acceleration being proportional to force, and equal and opposite reaction forces. Concepts like momentum, terminal velocity, and gravity are also briefly covered.

    Motion & Forces

    Speed & Velocity


    • Speed - the rate of change in
    position over time (distance/time)
    • Instantaneous speed
    • Average speed
    • How is velocity different from
    speed? Velocity describes both
    speed and direction
    Change in Velocity

    What makes an object


    change velocity?
    Force
    • Push or Pull
    • Forces can cause a change
    in velocity
    • Examples:
    Gravity
    Magnetism
    Friction
    Balanced Forces
    Forces that
    – act on the same object
    – are opposite in direction
    – are equal in size
    Balanced Forces
    Book on table
    1. Weight of the book
    is downward force
    caused by gravity
    2. Table pushes back
    with an equal and
    opposite force
    Net force is zero
    Unbalanced Forces
    Forces that are NOT opposite
    and equal

    What do they cause?

    CHANGE IN VELOCITY
    ACCELERATION
    Friction
    Force that opposes
    motion between 2
    surfaces
    Depends on the:
    • types of surfaces
    • force between the
    surfaces
    Types of Friction
    • Static Friction: (Couch Potato)
    – Force between objects at rest
    • Sliding Friction: (Ice skating)
    – Solid surfaces slide over each other
    • Rolling Friction: (Rollerblading)
    – An object rolls over a surface.
    • Fluid friction: (Submarine)
    – An object moves through a fluid
    Friction
    Friction is greater...
    –between rough
    surfaces
    –when there’s greater
    force between surfaces
    (such as more weight)
    Lubricant
    Changes sliding friction
    into fluid friction
    Friction
    Is friction always bad?
    Gravity
    The attractive force
    between all objects
    in the universe
    Acceleration of
    Gravity
    Near the surface of the earth the
    acceleration due to gravity is 9.8
    m/s/s
    Newton’s 1 Law st

    An object at rest remains at


    rest and an object in motion
    will continue moving at a
    constant velocity unless acted
    on by unbalanced forces.
    Newton’s Laws of
    Motion
    Newton’s 1 Law st

    INERTIA
    • tendency of an object to resist
    any change in its motion
    • increases as mass increases
    Newton‘s 2 nd
    Law

    If more force is applied, an


    object will be accelerated _____
    more
    Newton’s 2 nd
    Law
    • More force means more
    acceleration
    • More mass means less
    acceleration
    Force = mass X acceleration

    F = ma
    Newton’s 3 rd
    Law
    For every action, there is an equal
    and opposite reaction.
    Forces occur only in pairs
    – Act on different objects
    – Equal and opposite
    Newton’s 3 rd
    Law
    The hammer
    exerts a force on
    the nail to the
    right.

    The nail exerts an


    equal but opposite
    force on the
    hammer to the
    left.
    Momentum
    Terminal Velocity

    The final speed of a


    falling object.
    Terminal Velocity
    Air resistance is
    offsetting the the
    weight of the
    object
    Forces
    End
    Force

    Aristotle's idea:

    For an object to move at a


    constant speed, a constant
    force must be applied.
    Force

    Newton’s idea:
    An object moving at a constant speed
    will continue at that speed without
    additional force being applied.
