Newton’s 2nd Law
In this lesson, we will be focusing on Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion. This law is all about the connections between force, mass, and acceleration. Let’s find out more from the characters in Eureka.
2 X 1 X 1 X 2 X The red ball has twice the mass of the red ball So.... if the mass is doubled, what happens to the force? ?
3 X 6 X 1 X 20 X 20 X 1 X 3 X 6 X FORCE is proportional to MASS Let’s try some other masses… ? ? ?
1 X 1 X 1 X 2 X What if both balls have the same mass, but the speeds are different. If the speed is doubled, what happens to the force? ? 20 km/hr 40 km/hr
1 X 1 X 1 X 1 X 1 X 3 X 2 X 4 X 1 X 1 X So... FORCE is proportional to CHANGE OF SPEED.... ? 20 km/hr 20 km/hr 40 km/hr ? ? 60 km/hr 80 km/hr
The amount of force needed depends onmass AND change of speed Let’s sum up what we know so far… If we double mass, we ______ force If we double change of speed we ______ force double double Ready for a brain check?
1. If you increase mass, what happens to force? A. increases B. decreases C. stays the same 2. If you increase speed, what happens to force? A. increases B. decreases C. stays the same
Let’s look at this idea of change of speed a little more… 4 Acceleration 1
It takes time to go from zero to the top speed, so... it’s really the “rate of change of speed” we’re talking about. The word that means “rate of change of speed” is acceleration…
This means we can write Newton’s 2nd Law as “force varies with mass and acceleration” The key idea of this Law can also be turned into an equation: Force = mass x acceleration (F=ma)
FMA Live! Fma Live 2nd Law
Force = mass x acceleration F = ma In an equation, changing one variable means another variable must also change. If... What happens to… F = m a F? F = m a a?
Let’s try some more… If... What happens to… 1. F = m a a? 2. F = m a a? 3. F = m a F? 4. F = m a a?
