1 Aim: What did Isaac Newton teach us about motion? Do Now: 1. A 2009 Ford Mustang convertible is travelling at constant velocity on Interstate 95 south from Philadelphia to Wilmington Delaware. It passes the 120 mile marker at exactly 1:00pm and the 130 mile marker at 1:08pm. What is the acceleration of the car? Isaac Newton "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants" Isaac Newton to Robert Hooke 1

2 Newton's First Law of Motion Law of inertia Inertia 2. Which person has the greatest inertia? (1) a 110 kg wrestler resting on a mat (2) a 90 kg man walking at 2 m/s (3) a 70 kg long distance runner traveling at 5 m/s (4) a 50 kg girl sprinting at 10 m/s 2

3 Newton's Second Law of Motion Change in straight line motion is Objects with more inertia ( ) resist change in straight line motion ( ) Therefore is proportional to A force is Net force is 3. Mr. Vigneaux pushes on a box with a force of 10 N, while Mr. Evans pushes the other direction with a force of 7 N. What is the net force on the box? 3

4 4. A 1200kg car is accelerated at a rate of 4 m/s/s. What is the net force acting on the car? 5. A train engine with a mass of 5000 kg is pushed with a force of 12,000 N to the East. Friction provides a force of 2,000 N to the West. What is the net force on the train? What is the acceleration of the train? 4

5 6. The following forces act on a box of mass m 5 N m 3 N The box accelerates at a rate of 6 m/s/s. What is the mass, m, of the box? Newton's 3rd Law of Motion: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction For every force there is an equal and opposite force You can't touch something without it touching you You can't push on something without it pushing on you Home Entertainment Due Today Matchbox Cars Lab Due Tomorrow Concept Development Practice Page AND textbook p Problems 1a, 1b, 4, 5 Due Thursday (11:59 PM) Castle Learning 5

But if you zigzagged, the elephant s mass would be to your advantage. Why? 19 Forces of 10 N and 15 N in the same direction act on an object.
