Physics Energy and matter interact through forces that result in changes in motion.
Objective • Describe different patterns of motion of objects.
Motion is Relative • The motion of an object is always judged with respect to some other object or point. The idea of absolute motion or rest is misleading.
Speed and Velocity • The motion of an object can be described by its position, direction of motion, and speed.
Net Force • An object’s motion is the result of the combined effect of all forces acting on the object.
Newton’s First Law • A moving object that is not subjected to a force will continue to move at a constant speed in a straight line. • An object at rest will remain at rest.
Newton’s Second Law • Force is directly related to an object’s mass and acceleration. • The greater the force, the greater the change in motion.
Newton’s Third Law • For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Objective • Observe, describe, and compare effects of forces (gravity, electric current, and magnetism) on the motion of objects.
Gravity • Every object exerts gravitational force on every other object.
Gravity • Gravitational force depends on: • mass of the objects • how far apart the objects are
Gravity • Gravitational force depends on: • mass of the objects • how far apart the objects are
Gravity • Gravitational force depends on: • mass of the objects • how far apart the objects are
Orbit • Gravity is one of the forces acting on orbiting objects
Projectile Motion • Gravity is one of the forces acting projectiles.
Electromagnetism • Electric currents and magnets can exert a force on each other.
Machines • Machines transfer mechanical energy from one object to another.
Friction • Friction is a force that opposes motion. FRICTION
Lubricants • A machine can be made more efficient by reducing friction. • Some common ways of reducing friction include lubricating or waxing surfaces.
Machines Make Work Easier • Machines can change: • the direction • amount of force • the distance or speed of force required to do work.
Simple Machines • Simple machines include a lever, a pulley, a wheel and axle, and an inclined plane.
Complex Machine • A complex machine uses a combination of interacting simple machines, example: a bicycle.
