Forces 12.1 Name 1 A is a push or a pull that on an. How do forces affect the motion of an object? Measuring Force You may have measured forces using a spring scale. The of the spring in the scale depends on the amount of (a type of ) acting on it. Units of Force One (N) is the force that causes a 1-kilogram mass to accelerate at a of 1 meter per each second (1 m/s 2 ). 1 N = When the forces on an object are balanced, the net force is, and there is no change in the object s. When an force acts on an object, the object. Representing Force can represent a force. The of the arrows show relative of force. Free-body diagrams are diagrams used to show the forces acting upon an object in a given situation. The net force is the force acting on an after the forces are Forces in the same direction together. Forces in directions from one another. Balanced Forces Balanced forces are forces that to produce a net force of. An unlimited number of individual forces can act on an object to produce a net force of zero. The two groups with equal forces in directions. The forces to make a net force of. Unbalanced Forces An force is a force that results when the force acting on an object is equal to zero. Forces can add together or subtract from one another.
2 Static Friction Static friction is the friction force that acts on objects that are moving. Static friction acts in the direction to that of the force. Sliding Friction Sliding friction is a force that the of motion of an object as it over a surface. Sliding friction is than static friction. Static friction the potted tree does not move. Sliding friction when the tree moves, sliding friction acts to oppose the direction of motion. Rolling Friction Rolling friction is the friction force that acts on objects. The force of friction is about 100 to 1000 times than the force of static or sliding friction. Ball in these wheels greatly reduce friction by sliding with rolling friction. Fluid Friction Fluid friction the motion of an object through a. Fluid friction acting on an object moving through the air is known as. Fluid friction as the of the object moving through the fluid. Gravity is a that acts between two masses. Gravity is Gravity can Earth exerts an, downward force on this. The supporting rock exerts an force on the boulder. The forces are. Falling Objects Both gravity and air resistance affect the. As objects fall to the ground, they is the velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance the force of gravity. This flying squirrel takes advantage of air resistance to slow its fall and increase the distance covered in the jump. A thrown ball follows a path.
Projectile motion is the of a falling object (projectile) it is given an velocity. Air resistance and are the only forces acting on a. 3 12.1 Quiz Questions 1.

Newton s 1 st and 2 nd 12.2 4 Aristotle Aristotle made scientific discoveries through careful and reasoning. Aristotle proposed that is required to keep an object at speed. Galileo Galileo Galilei studied how produces acceleration. He rolled balls down wooden ramps. He concluded that moving objects would continue to move indefinitely. to friction or any other Newton built on the work of scientists such as Galileo. Newton first defined mass and force. He then introduced his of motion. According to Newton s law of motion, the state of motion of an object does not change as long as the force acting on the object is zero. Unless an force acts, an object at rest at rest. Unless an unbalanced force acts, an object in remains in motion with the same and. is the tendency of an object to a in its. This crash sequence illustrates. The test dummy continues its forward motion as the car slows and stops. According to Newton s law of motion, the acceleration of an object is to the net acting on it divided by the object s. (write formula here) The acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force acting on it. The of an object also depends upon its. is a measure of the of an object.
The acceleration of an object is in the same as the net force. When a net force acts in the direction to the object s, the force produces a. 5 Newton s Second Law An automobile with a mass of 1000 kilograms accelerates when the traffic light turns green. If the net force on the car is 4000 newtons, what is the car s acceleration? What unknown are you trying to calculate? What formula contains the given quantities and the unknown? Replace each variable with its known value and solve. 1. A boy pushes forward a cart of groceries with a total mass of 40.0 kg. What is the acceleration of the cart if the net force on the cart is 60.0 N? 2. What is the upward acceleration of a helicopter with a mass of 5000 kg if a force of 10,000 N acts on it in an upward direction? 3. An automobile with a mass of 1200 kg accelerates at a rate of 3.0 m/s 2 in the forward direction. What is the net force acting on the automobile? (Hint: Solve the acceleration formula for force.) 4. A 25-N force accelerates a boy in a wheelchair at 0.5 m/s2. What is the mass of the boy and the wheelchair? (Hint: Solve Newton s second law for mass.)
Acceleration depends directly on force and on mass. The same force causes the single cart to accelerate times faster than the chain of carts. 6 Mass and weight are related but are the.

According to Newton s law of motion, whenever one object a force on a object, the second object exerts an and force on the first object. 7 Action and Reaction Forces The force your bumper car exerts on the other car is the force. The force the other car exerts on your car is the force. These two forces are in size and in direction. Suppose you press your hand against a wall. Your hand exerts an force on the wall. The wall exerts an equal and opposite reaction against your hand. Action-Reaction Forces and Motion A swimmer pushing the water is an action force.
