Lift Force Flift BOOK Fg Gravitational Force If there is no acceleration how do the forces compare?
Inertia – an objects tendency to resist a change in motion Mass – the quantitative measure of mass
Newton’s First Law An object continues it’s motion unless acted upon by a net force Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object
If I lift my 1.5 kg text book causing it to accelerate upwards with a = 2.3 m/s2, how much force do I have to lift with? • Think about the earlier free-body diagram.
Fnet = ma • Fnet = Flift – Fg • ma = Flift – m(9.81m/s2) • Flift = ma + m(9.81m/s2) • Flift = (1.5kg)(2.3m/s2) + (1.5kg)(9.81m/s2) • Flift =
Newton’s Second Law • F = ma • Newton’s Third Law • Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
If your car engine exerts a 4500 N force on it’s 1500 kg mass, how much acceleration will your car experience at full throttle?
F = ma • 4500 N = (1500kg) a • a= 3 m/s2
Normal Force • The force exerted by the object in contact with another object perpendicular to the surface usually due to gravity. • Ex. Your book on the table, the gravitational force is downward on the book but the normal force is upward from the table against the book. • What is the sum of those forces?
Frictional Forces • Static vs Kinetic • Fs is not in the direction of Fn, they are perpendicular or at an angle to eachother.
Kinectic Friction Always less than static friction μs > μk why? Both frictional forces oppose the motion of the object across the other object
Ex. If my shoes have a static friction coefficient of 0.6 with the floor and I have a mass of 92 kg, what is the frictional force resisting my movement?
