DO NOW . What is friction?. Friction . The force that two surfaces exert on each other when they rub against each other. Smooth surfaces usually produce less friction than rough surfaces. The strength of the force of friction depends on two factors: 1. how hard the surfaces push together

DO NOW What is friction?
Friction • The force that two surfaces exert on each other when they rub against each other. • Smooth surfaces usually produce less friction than rough surfaces. • The strength of the force of friction depends on two factors: • 1. how hard the surfaces push together • 2. the types of surfaces involved.
Static Friction • The friction that acts on objects that are not moving.
Sliding Friction • Occurs when two solid surfaces slide over each other. • Can be useful (brakes use sliding friction)
Rolling Friction • When an object rolls across a surface.
Fluid Friction • Occurs when a solid object moves through a fluid. • Flying through the air and swimming.
DO NOW • List the 4 types of friction and give an example of each.
Gravity • The force that pulls objects towards each other.
Universal Gravitation • Gravity acts everywhere, not just on Earth • Law of Universal Gravitation: the force of gravity works between all objects in the universe. • Any two objects in the universe attract each other… no exception • Everything around you is attracted to you, but it is not as strong as the force that is attracting you to the earth.
Factors affecting Gravity • Two factors affect the attraction of gravity • Mass- • the measure of the amount of matter in an object. • Everything that has mass is made of matter • The more mass an object has, the greater its gravitational force • Distance- • The farther apart two objects are the smaller the gravitational force between them.
Weight and Mass • Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object • Weight is the measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object. • Weight varies with the strength of the gravitational force but mass does not. • You would have a smaller weight on the moon because the mass of the moon is 1/8 that of the Earth.
Gravity and Motion • On Earth gravity is a downward force that affects all objects. • Free Fall: when the only force acting on an object is gravity. • In free fall, the force of gravity is an unbalanced force, which causes an object to accelerate. • The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8m/s2
Air Resistance • Objects falling through air experience a type of fluid friction called air resistance. • Falling objects with a greater surface area have a greater air resistance. • Air resistance increases with velocity • The greatest velocity that a falling object reaches is known as its terminal velocity.
Quick Lab • With a partner take two sheets of paper and a stop watch. • Keep the first piece of paper flat and hold it parallel to the floor. • Time how long it takes for the first piece of paper to reach the ground when you drop it from eye level. • Take the second piece of paper and crumple it into a ball. • Dropping it from the same height as the first, time how long it will take for the paper to reach the ground.
DO NOW • What determines the air resistance?
Projectile Motion • An object that is thrown is known as a projectile. • Gravity affects objects in horizontal motion the same way that it affects those in free fall.
Projectile Motion Lab • Get into groups of 3 or 4.
Newton’s First Law of Motion • An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Inertia • Is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion. • Depends on mass • The greater the mass of an object the greater the force required to move it, and the greater the inertia.
Newton’s Second Law of Motion • Acceleration depends on the object’s mass and the net force acting on the object. • Acceleration = Net Force Mass Acceleration is measured in m/s/s or m/s2
Changes in Force and Mass • In order to increase acceleration you must either • increase the force exerted on it or • decrease the mass of the object • In order to decrease acceleration you must either • Decrease the force exerted on the object or • increase the mass of the object
DO NOW • What are Newton’s First and Second Laws of Motion? Objective: State Newton’s third law of motion and explain how an object’s momentum is determined. Key Terms Momentum Law of Conservation of Momentum
Newton’s Third 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. Or • For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.
Action-Reaction Pairs • When you jump your feet push on the ground, and the ground pushes back on you • When you are rowing a boat the oar pushes on the water, and the water forces the boat forward.
DO NOW • Take out homework
Momentum • The momentum of a moving object • Momentum= Mass x Velocity
Conservation of Momentum • In the absence of outside forces the total momentum of objects that interact does not change. • Total momentum of any group of objects remains the same, or is conserved, unless outside forces act on the objects. • Friction is an example of an outside force.
Collisions with two moving objects • A red ball travels at 2 m/s while a blue ball travels at 4m/s. when they bump into each other the red ball is now moving at 4m/s while the blue car is moving at 2m/s. • Momentum is conserved-the momentum of one train decreases while the momentum of the other train increases.
Collision with one moving object • Moving Object transfers its momentum to stationary object.
Two Connected Objects • Moving object connects to stationary object and then two objects move together with the same momentum.
