1 NEWTON S LAWS OF Forces 1 st Law of Motion 2 nd Law of Motion 3 rd Law of Motion MOTION

2 Forces Force: a push or a pull on an object *Force is measured in Newtons*

3 Forces Balanced and Unbalanced Forces - Balanced forces - forces that are equal but in opposite directions, canceling each other. 50N 50N - Unbalanced forces forces that are unequal, one is greater than another; a change in motion will result - Net Force - the combination of all forces acting on an object

4 Forces Identifying forces:

5 Potential vs. Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy = moving energy. Potential energy = stationary. Where is Potential Energy the greatest? Where is Kinetic Energy the greatest?

7 1. Is this magic or is this real and can be explained with science? 2. How did it work?

8 What will happen? - Clothes on the floor of your room. - A ball rolling across the gym floor. - A tennis ball flies through the air after you hit it. - The car you are riding in suddenly stops. - You left your sonic drink on the roof of the car and the driver stomps on the gas. - The driver of the car takes a sudden turn. So you re saying that the objects at rest stay at rest, the moving objects stay moving and they also resist changing their motion? Read pages (stop at Second Law of Motion) and fill in your 1 st Law Notes

9 Newton s 1 st Law of Motion An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. For your notes: - Newton s 1 st Law - An object at rest will stay at rest, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

10 Newton s 1 st Law of Motion Whether an object is moving or not, it resists any change to its motion. Galileo s concept of the resistance to a change in motion is called inertia. For your notes: - Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion.

11 Newton s 1 st Law (aka Law of Inertia) Inertia Depends on Mass For your notes: - the more the mass an object has, the more it resists a change in motion (more mass = more inertia). For example: Which is harder to move? An adult on a swing vs. a small child Why? An empty aquarium vs. one full of water Why? The greater the mass of an object is, the greater its inertia, and the greater the force required to change its motion.

12 Newton s 1 st Law (aka Law of Inertia) - Did it really work? - Why? Inertia: The inertia of the objects on the table keeps them from moving. - Inferring Why should the girl use a slippery tablecloth? - Would heavy dishes or light dishes work better?

15 What will happen? VS Result?

16 What will happen? fast VS slow Result?

17 What will happen? VS Result?

18 What will happen? Two trucks are traveling at the same speed towards each other. If truck A is big and it runs into small truck B, in what direction does small truck B go? A bouncy ball is thrown at a window and a baseball is thrown at a window both are thrown at the same speed. Which one will do more damage? You re walking down the hallway and someone walks into you when you turn a corner. The next day the same person is running down the hall and runs into you when you turn the corner. Which day does it hurt more? So, you re saying that force depends on how big something is or how fast it s moving? Read pages (start at Second Law of Motion) and fill in your 2 nd law notes

19 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion The acceleration of an object depends on the object s mass and on the net force acting on the object. For your notes: - Newton s 2 nd Law - acceleration of an object depends on its mass and the force acting on it. Force = Mass x Acceleration

20 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion Force is measured in Newtons (N) Acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s 2 ) Mass is measured in kilograms (Kg) For your notes: Force Newtons (N) Mass Kilograms (Kg) Acceleration meters per second squared (m/s 2 )

21 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion If mass equals 200 kg and the acceleration equals 3 m/s 2 you can plug these into the equation F = MA. It would look like this: F = MA F = 200 kg x 3 m/s 2 F = 600 N

22 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion What if mass is 10 kg and acceleration is 7 m/s 2? F = MA F = 10 kg x 7 m/s 2 F = 70 N

23 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion What about acceleration due to gravity? If dropped at the same time, would a hammer and feather fall at the same speed? What about on the Moon? Yes, there is still gravity on the moon At the end of the last Apollo 15 moon walk (July 1971), Commander David Scott held out a geologic hammer (1.32-kg aluminum) and a feather (0.03-kg falcon feather) and dropped them at the same time. Because they were essentially in a vacuum, there was no air resistance and the feather fell at the same rate as the hammer, as Galileo had concluded hundreds of years before all objects released together fall at the same rate regardless of mass. On Earth though, we have air resistance.

26 Newton s 2 nd Law of Motion If a 30 kg sand bag is dropped from a hot air balloon, what will its force be when it hits the ground? (the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 ) F = MA F = 30 kg x 9.8 m/s 2 F = 294 N

28 What will happen? - If you and your friend are both on skates and you push on each other. - Sitting in a kayak you take a paddle and push against the water. - You hit a volleyball. So you re saying that for every force there is an equal and opposite force? Read pages and fill in your 3 rd Law notes.

29 Newton s 3 rd 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. For your notes: - Newton s 3 rd Law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

30 Newton s 3 rd Law of Motion - If a tennis racket hits a tennis ball with a force of 2,500 N, what force does the tennis ball put back onto the racket? - If a golf club strikes a golf ball with a force of 9,000 N, what force does the golf ball put back on the club? - Why is the golf ball deformed in this picture? - If the forces are equal, then why doesn t the a baseball bat fly as far as the baseball (in the opposite direction)? - If you drop a bowling ball on the ground what is the reaction of the Earth? Why?
