  3. Force of Gravity and Weight • The force of gravity is represented by Fg • Fg is a vector quantity. • Fg always points down toward the center of the Earth. • The scalar portion (magnitude) of the force of gravity is what we call weight.

  4. Weight and Mass • Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object has. • It also tells us how much “inertia” an object has. • Weight is a measure of the force of gravity. • In the absence of gravity, a substance has no weight, but it still has mass. • Mass is proportional to weight. • Weight = m g

  5. Normal Force • The normal force is the force that a support surface provides. • This force is always perpendicular to a surface. • Ex.- A .50 kg book rests on a table. Fn Fg=-mg= - 4.9 N

  6. Normal Force • The normal force is not always equal to an object’s weight. • Example- A student presses down on with a force of 3 N on a 4.9 N book. Fn Fg=-mg= - 4.9 N Fs = -3 N

  7. Frictional Forces • Frictional forces oppose the applied force. • They act in the opposite direction of the motion.

  8. Static Friction • Static friction (Fs) is the frictional force that acts on a static (nonmoving) object. • When an object is not moving, the frictional force will equal the applied force but be in the opposite direction. • Fs= - Fapplied • There is a maximum amount of static friction, Fs,max . Once the applied force exceeds Fs,max the object breaks free and begins moving.

  9. Kinetic Friction • Kinetic friction is the frictional force on a moving object. • The force of kinetic friction is less than the maximum static friction. • The net force on a moving object is equal to Fapplied - Fk

  10. Coefficient of Friction • The force of friction is proportional to the normal force. • The coefficient of friction is the ratio of the force of friction to the normal force for particular surfaces. • Coefficient of kinetic friction mk = Fk/Fn • Coefficient of static friction ms = Fs,max/Fn

  11. Coefficient of Friction Example • A 24 kg crate, initially at rest, requires a 75 N force to set it in motion. Once moving, a force of 53 N is needed to keep it moving with constant velocity. • Find the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction.

  14. Air Resistance • The force of air resistance (FR) is a form of friction. • FR depends on velocity. • Terminal speed: At some speed, the air resistance will be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity. (FR = -Fg). Once an object reaches that speed, it will no longer accelerate. It will continue to fall at a constant speed.
