  1. Chapter 10-Forces All forces that affect motion.

  2. Nature of Force • A force is a push or a pull. • Forces have a strength and direction. • The net force is all the forces that are added together. • Unbalanced forces acting on an object will change the object’s motion. • Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object’s motion.

  3. Newton’s Laws of Motion • Newton’s First Law of Motion states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object that is moving at constant velocity will continue moving at constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. • Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist change in its motion. • The amount of inertia of an object depends on its mass. • Law of Inertia

  4. Newton’s Second Law of Motion • The net force on an object is equal to the product of its acceleration and its mass. • Force = mass x acceleration • Force is measured in units called Newtons. • One newton equals the force required to accelerate one kilogram mass at 1 meter per second per second. • Acceleration = Force / Mass

  5. Newton’s Second Law(continued) • Forces are unbalanced • This law is dependent on two variables: • Net forces • Mass of the object • As the force applied to an object increases, the acceleration increases. • As the mass of an object increases, the acceleration decreases.

  6. Understanding the law. • Newton's laws declare loudly that a net force (an unbalanced force) causes an acceleration; the acceleration is in the same direction as the net force. • Free-body diagrams are diagrams used to show the relative magnitude and direction of all forces acting upon an object in a given situation.(diagram on right)

  7. Magnitude & Direction of Forces • Vectors are quantities which are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.

  8. Friction • Friction is the force that one surface exerts on another when the two rub against each other. • The strength of the force of friction depends on two factors: • Types of surfaces involved. • How hard the surfaces push together.

  9. Types of Friction • Types of friction: • Sliding friction-solid surfaces slide over each other. • Rolling friction-object rolls over the surface. • Fluid friction-object moves through a fluid.

  10. Gravity • Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards Earth. • Objects free fall when the only force acting on a falling object is gravity. • The law of universal gravitation states that the force of gravity acts between all objects in the universe. • Weight is a measure of the force of gravity on an object, and mass is a measure of the amount of matter in that object.

  11. Projectile Motion • An object that is thrown is a projectile. • Projectile motion is the motion of an object that is thrown horizontally. • Gravity pulls down on an object that is in projectile motion. • An object thrown will hit the ground at the same time that an object is dropped. • Gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s2.

  12. Air Resistance • Air resistance is a type of fluid friction that an object falling through air experience. • The greater the surface area of an object, the greater the air resistance. • Terminal velocity is the greatest velocity that a falling object can reach. • Terminal velocity is reached when the air resistance equals the force of gravity.

  13. Newton’s Third Law of Motion • If one object exerts a force on another object, then the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction on the first object. • Otherwise, for every force there is an equal and opposite reaction force.

  14. Momentum • Momentum is the product of the mass and its velocity. • Momentum = Mass x Velocity • Law of Conservation of Momentum states that the total momentum of the objects that interact does not change. • The total momentum of any group of objects remains the same unless outside forces act on the objects.

  15. Placing Satellites in Space • A rocket can rise into the air because the gases it expels with a downward force exert an equal but opposite force on the rocket. • Satellites orbit the earth in circular paths because of centripetal force. • Satellites in orbit around Earth continually fall toward Earth, but because Earth is curved they travel around it.
