  1. Chapter 4: Force and the Laws of Motion • The tendency of objects to resist change in their state of motion is called inertia • Inertia is measured quantitatively by the object's mass. • Objects will undergo changes in motion only in the presence of a net (unbalanced) force • Net force,: ALL of the forces acting on one, unique object. These forces are often summarized in a freebody diagram. • If the forces cancel each other, then the net force acting on the body is equal to zero. When this happens, the object is said to be in a state of equilibrium: • static equilibrium occurs when the object is at rest; • dynamic equilibrium occurs when the object is moving at a constant velocity or speed

  2. N mg Static or Dynamic equilibrium (Newton’s First Law) • Types of Force (most common) • weight • normal • friction • tensions • applied forces A man stands on a scale inside a stationary elevator Reading on scale

  3. N mg An object at rest must have no net force on it. If it is sitting on a table, the object exerts a downward force mg on the surface of the table. m The surface of the table exerts an upward force on the block, called the normal force. It is exactly as large as needed to balance the force from the object. ** Important: The normal force is always perpendicular to the surface (90 degree) The reason is for Newton’s 3rd Law.

  4. Newton’s Third Law Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second exerts an equal force in the opposite direction on the first. F1 F2 F2 F1 F1 = Box pushes on table F2 = Table pushes on box F1 = Box pushes on table F2 = Table pushes on box Then is how we draw the FBD – not the action/reaction forces Action/Reaction Forces

  5. More Free Body Diagrams – Equilibrium A 20kg box at rest on a 4.5m table. A 20kg box at rest on the floor 3. Draw the free body diagram for the following problems – don’t solve just the FBD. #84-85, 90, 98

  6. Finding Net Force in equilibrium A 400 N car is being pulled by a tow truck with 600N force (constant velocity). If the force of friction is 50N, what is the net force on the car. Draw the FBD Complete #84, 87 pg. 882. Finding component of Net Force. A box is being pulled with a net force of 20N at angle of 15 degrees. Find the x and y component of the net force. Complete 85-86 pg. 882.

  7. Forces of 10.0 N north, 20.0 N east, and 15.0 N south are simultaneously applied to a 4.00-kg mass. Find the net force in x direction and y direction. Then find total net force. Force of 20.0N up, 40.0N down, 30.0N left are applied to 5.00kg object. Find the net force in x direction and y direction. Then find total net force.

  8. N mg Objects on incline in equilibrium q q

  9. Incline problem – equilibrium. • A 10kg box is sliding down incline (angle of 10 degrees) with a constant speed of 20 m/s. • Draw the FBD. • Find the force of friction • Find the normal force. • A 50kg box is sliding down incline (angle of 25 degrees) with a constant speed of 20 m/s. • Draw the FBD. • Find the force of friction • Find the normal force.

  10. Incline problem – equilibrium Continue… • A 50N box is sliding down incline (angle of 15 degrees) with a constant speed of 50 m/s. • Draw the FBD. • Find the force of friction • Find the normal force. • A 100N box is sliding down incline (angle of 50 degrees) with a constant speed of 5 m/s. • Draw the FBD. • Find the force of friction • Find the normal force.

  11. What Happens if you accelerate? * Velocity is not constant* Example: A net force 400N is pulling a 500kg truck. What is the acceleration of the truck? Example: If you kick a ball with a net force of 100N horizontal that accelerates at 2.5 m/s2, what is the mass of the ball?

  12. What about Friction? • Static Friction: the force that resist the sliding of motion between two surfaces that are in contact and at rest. • Kinetic Friction: the force that opposes the movement of two surfaces that are in contact and are sliding over each other. (Constant velocity or constant acceleration)
