1 Appling Newton s Laws of Motion As ou read in Section 2.2, Newton s laws of motion describe ow objects move as a result of different forces. In tis section, ou will appl Newton s laws to objects subjected to various forces in two dimensions, as well as objects tat are accelerating. For eample, Figure 1 sows a skier moving downill. You can draw an FBD of all te forces acting on te skier. Eart s gravit acts directl downward and as components parallel and perpendicular to te slope. Te normal force acts perpendicular to te ill and cancels te component of gravit perpendicular to te ill. Finall, friction acts parallel to te ill, opposing te skier s motion. You can use te sum of tese forces and Newton s laws to learn about te motion of te skier. 2.3 F f Figure 1 Te forces on tis skier are gravit, te normal force, and friction. Compared to te oter forces acting on te skier, air resistance is negligible ere. Tese forces can be broken into components parallel and perpendicular to te illside to analze te motion of te skier. Objects in Equilibrium Wen te net force on an object is zero, tat object is said to be in equilibrium. As discussed in Section 2.2, an object wit no net force acting on it will not accelerate. So, an object in equilibrium will remain at rest or remain moving at a constant velocit until a force acts on it. Matematicall, an object is in equilibrium wen SF > 5 0, or, wen ou break te forces down into teir components, bot SF 5 0 and SF 5 0. Wen solving problems involving objects in equilibrium, ou can set te positive -ais in an direction, but ou sould draw te FBD first and ten pick te most convenient direction. B convenient we mean te direction tat will give ou te fewest components. Te Tutorial on te net page sows ou ow to solve problems wen an object is in equilibrium. equilibrium a state in wic an object as no net force acting on it Investigation Static Equilibrium of Forces (page 95) In tis investigation, ou will analze te conditions for equilibrium using vector components. 2.3 Appling Newton s Laws of Motion 77

2 Tutorial 1 Solving Problems for Objects Tat Are in Equilibrium Tis Tutorial sows ow to solve problems for objects in equilibrium wen acted on b two-dimensional forces. Sample Problem 1: Calculating Tension and te Normal Force A sled as a mass of 14 kg and is on a ill tat is inclined 258 to te orizontal, as sown in Figure 2(a). Te ill is ver ic (negligible friction), and te sled is eld at rest b a rope attaced to a post. Te rope is parallel to te ill as sown. Figure 2 sows te FBD. (a) Calculate te magnitude of te tension in te rope. Calculate te magnitude of te normal force acting on te sled. 25 Solution (a) Given: m 5 14 kg; u Required: Analsis: Tension is parallel to te illside, and te normal force is perpendicular to te illside. So let te positive -ais point up te illside as sown in Figure 2. Determine te components of gravit, and resolve te forces in te -direction to solve for tension. Te sled is in equilibrium, so te net force is zero. Solution: SF SF mg sin u mg sin u 5 mg sin u kg m/s 2 2 sin N Statement: Te magnitude of te tension in te rope is 58 N. Given: m 5 14 kg; u Required: Analsis: Resolve te forces in te -direction to solve for te normal force. Te sled is in equilibrium, so te net force is zero. Solution: SF SF mg cos u mg cos u 5 mg cos u kg m/s 2 2 cos N Statement: Te magnitude of te normal force on te sled is N. (a) 25 mg cos mg mg sin Figure 2 Sample Problem 2: Force Applied at an Angle Your car is stuck in te mud, and ou ask a friend to elp ou pull it free using a rope. You tie one end of te rope to our car and ten pull on te oter end wit a force of 10 3 N. Unfortunatel, te car does not move. Your friend ten suggests tat ou make a knot in te middle of te rope, tie te oter end of te rope to a tree, and ten pull on te knot. Altoug ou are skeptical tat our friend s idea will elp, ou tr it anwa. You make a knot in te middle of te rope. You leave one end of te rope attaced to te car and tie te oter end to a tree at an angle u Ten ou and our friend pull on te knot in te direction indicated b F > a in Figure 3(a). Figure 3 sows te FBD wit te forces acting on te knot at point O. You discover tat wen a 10 3 N force is applied to te knot in te middle of te rope in te direction sown in Figure 3(a), ou are just able to free te car at a slow constant velocit. W does tis work? 78 Capter 2 Dnamics

Since te car is just on te verge of moving, ou can appl te conditions for equilibrium to tis situation. Consider te forces acting on te rope at point O (te point at wic ou and our friend eert our force) to determine te tension in terms of te applied force. Appl te conditions for static equilibrium to te rope at point O. Use te coordinate sstem to calculate te components of te tree forces along and, and ten appl te condition for equilibrium along. Te rope is continuous and te angles on te two sides are equal, so te tensions in te left and rigt portions of te rope are te same, rigt 5 left 5. Solution: SF 5 1 rigt sin u 1 left sin u 2 F sin u 1 sin u 2 F F 5 2 sin u 5 F 2 sin u N 2 sin N Statement: Tis arrangement multiplies te applied force. Te tension in te rope is able to pull te car out because it is 3 times te applied force (3F a ). Practice 1. Te static friction on one block is olding anoter block up, as sown in Figure 4.

Accelerating Objects If an object is not in equilibrium, ten it is accelerating in some direction. You can use Newton s second law, SF > 5 ma >, to determine te acceleration from te net force on te object, SF >. Wen solving problems tat involve accelerating objects, set te positive -ais in te direction of te net force (acceleration). Tis will ensure tat te net force as no additional -component, wic will simplif te solution. If ou do not know te direction of te net force, ten just set te positive -ais in te direction tat is te most convenient to solve te problem. In te following Tutorial, ou will use Newton s second law of motion to calculate velocit, acceleration, and tension for objects acted on b two-dimensional forces. Tutorial 2 Solving Problems for Objects Tat Are Accelerating Te Sample Problems model ow to calculate velocit, acceleration, and tension for objects tat are accelerating wen acted on b two-dimensional forces.

(a) mg cos 18 mg sin sin 18 Given: Dd 5 25 m; u 5 188, v i 5 0 Required: v f Analsis: Te sled will accelerate down te ill, so te net force is down te ill according to Newton s second law. Terefore, make te positive -ais down te ill. Tis means tat te normal force is in te direction of te positive -ais. Determine te components of te force of gravit in te - and -directions as defined b te coordinate aes in Figure 6. Use Newton s second law of motion to determine te acceleration along ; ten appl v 2 f 5 v 2 i 1 2a Dd to calculate te final speed.

Write Newton s second law for eac crate, and solve for te unknown values. To determine te magnitude of te tension, use te FBD for te crate on te surface. Te accelerations of bot masses are equal because te are tied togeter and te string does not stretc. Solution: SF 5 1 1For crate 12 m 1 a 5 1Equation 12 SF 5 m 2 g 2 1For crate 22 m 2 a 5 m 2 g 2 1Equation 22 m 1 a 1 m 2 a m 2 g 2 1Equation 1 1 Equation 22 m 1 a 1 m 2 a 5 m 2 g a 5 m 2g m 1 1 m kg 19.8 m/s kg kg a m/s 2 1one etra digit carried2 SF 5 1 m 1 a kg m/s N Statement: Te acceleration of te crates is 5.4 m/s 2, and te magnitude of te tension in te string is N.
