2 INTRODUCTION TO FORCES AND FORCE DIAGRAMS

3 FORCE DEFINITION: Force is a vector quantity that characterizes how hard (magnitude) and in which direction an external object pushes or pulls on the system object.

4 INTERACTIONS: PUSH or PULL System: Interaction: Objects: Physics: car Pushing Person & car Person exerts a force on the car.

5 INTERACTIONS: PUSH or PULL System: Interaction: Objects: Physics: dog Pulling Dog & Leash Leash exerts a force on the dog

6 FORCES: SOPHISTICATED LANGUAGE Forces are EXERTED... NOT applied, NOT acted upon. Objects do not have forces. A force requires TWO objects. Objects exert forces on other objects.

7

8 FORCE Forces are vector physical quantities: Magnitude Direction. F x F y Up or down Forward (left or right)

9 FORCE: SUBSCRIPTS F M on S The symbol for force has subscripts identifying the external object that exerts the force and the system object on which the force is exerted.

10 FORCE: SUBSCRIPTS System: Sled Interaction: Megan exerts a force on the sled. F M on S Force that Megan (M) exerts on the sled (S)

11 TWO KINDS OF FORCE Contact forces: Objects are in contact for the interaction (touching each other). Book on table Cellphone on hand Car on parking lot Colored pencils on box

12 TWO KINDS OF FORCE Field Forces: Non-contact force in which a field (created by an external object) exerts a force on an object inside the field. Gravitational Field (objects attracted to planet Earth) Magnetic Field (magnet attracting a paper clip) Electric Field (pieces of paper attracted to plastic after being rubbed)

13 GRAVITATIONAL FORCE

14 PLANET EARTH INTERACTS WITH US! Earth is an object, a huge rock with a huge mass! This massive rock creates a gravitational field that exerts a force on every single object on its surface. The closer you are to the center, the stronger that this force is. The direction of this force is always towards the center of Earth.

15 FORCE THAT EARTH EXERTS ON AN OBJECT Earth exerts a force on each and every single object on Earth. This force is exerted towards the center of Earth and it is what keeps our feet on the ground. Say NO to gravity Earth is an object, ONLY OBJECTS can exert forces on other objects. GRAVITY IS NOT AN OBJECT..... Say NO to GRAVITY!!!

16 FORCE THAT EARTH EXERTS ON AN OBJECT Represented by: F E on O F EonO is a kind of Field force exerted inside the gravitational field of Earth. F EonO is ALWAYS present whether the object is moving, falling, resting on the ground or being lifted. Gravitational Force is an acceptable name for F EonO The direction of F EonO is always down (toward the center).

17 FORCE DIAGRAM

18 FORCE DIAGRAM A FORCE DIAGRAM is a graphical representation used by physicists to analyze the forces exerted on objects by other objects.

19 Drawing force diagrams 1. Sketch the situation. 2. Circle the system. 3. Identify external interactions. 4. Place a dot at the side of the sketch representing the system object. 5. Draw force arrows to represent the external interactions. 6. Label the forces with a subscript containing two elements.

39 Mass m Mass is a property of subatomic particles (electron, proton, neutron). It determines the amount of matter that makes up an object. Your mass will be the same, no matter if you are on Earth, the Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, etc.

40 gravitational constant g Constant acceleration caused by the gravitational force. It depends on the size and mass of the planet. g Earth = 9.8 m s 2 g Moon = 1.6 m s 2 g Jupiter = m s 2

41 Gravitational Force F EonO Field force exerted between two objects that have mass. The force depends on the distance separation between the two objects and their masses. Objects only feel the force exerted by another big (planet size) objects. F JonO = g Jupiter m F EonO = g Earth m

42 FORCE EARTH vs. WEIGHT GRAVITATIONAL FORCE (on Earth) Force that Earth exerts on an object (F EonO ) Vector: magnitude and direction Weight (F W ) Scalar: only magnitude (No Direction)

53 HOW CAN YOU LOSE WEIGHT WITHOUT LOSING MASS? Go to a planet (or size like object) with lower gravitational constant than Earth g = -9.8 m/s 2. Moon: g = -1.6 m/s 2 Pluto: g = m/s 2 Venus: g = m/s 2

123 Find the force that Earth exerts on the Rescue Hero F EonRH = g m F EonRH = 9.8 m kg s2 F EonRH = N F SonRH = N (equilibrium)

124 Force Exerted by Earth: F EonRH = N Force Exerted by String (Tension Force): F SonRH = N Weight of Rescue Hero (No direction): F W = N

125 TENSION FORCES The Force exerted by a rope, cable, string, thread, etc. The direction of the tension force is always along the rope, cable, string, thread, etc.

126 TENSION FORCES The length of the rope does not determine the magnitude ofthe tension force. It is possible to have a very short rope exerting a large tension force, or a very long rope exerting a small tension force. In a force diagram the length of the arrow corresponds to the magnitude of the force, not the length of the physical rope.

127 EQUILIBRIUM All forces exerted on the object are balanced: F X = 0 N F Y = 0 N Objects moves with constant velocity (including 0 m/s). The acceleration is 0 m/s 2 The velocity is constant The net Force is 0 N
