Chapter 7. Newton’s Third Law Chapter Goal: To use Newton’s third law to understand interacting objects.
Ch. 7 – Student Learning Objectives • To learn how two objects interact. • To identify action/reaction pairs of forces. • To understand and use Newton’s third law. • To understand how to use propulsion forces and tension forces.
Newton’s Third LawA force results due to an interaction between two objects
Action-reaction Pair If object A exerts a force on object B, then object B exerts a force on object A. The pair of forces (due to one interaction), is called an action/reaction pair. The action/reaction pair will never appear in the same free body diagram.
Example - analyzing interacting objects A person pushes a large crate across a rough surface. • Identify the objects that are systems of interest • Draw free-body diagrams for each system of interest. • Identify all action/reaction pairs with a dashed line.
Forces involved in pushing a crate – FBD of person and crate
Propulsion Force • The force label fp shows that the static friction force on the person is acting as a propulsion force. • This is a force that a system with an internal source of energy uses to drive itself forward.
Freebody Diagrams – Workbook exercises 1-7 Draw a freebody diagram of each object in the interacting system. Show action/reaction pair with red/orange dotted lines. Draw force vectors in another color. Label vectors with standard symbols. Label action/reaction pairs FAonB , FBonA for example.
Acceleration constraint • An acceleration constraint is a well-defined relationship between the acceleration of 2 (or more) objects. • In the case shown, we can assume ac =aT = ax • Takes into account both magnitude and direction in an established coordinate system.
What is the acceleration constraint in this situation? • aA = aB • aA = - aB • - aA = aB • Both B and C • None
What is the acceleration constraint in this situation? • a2 = a1 • a2 = - a1 • a2 = 2a1 • a2 = -.5a1 • a2 = -.5a1
EOC #8 Two strong magnets each weigh 2 N and are on opposite sides of the table. The table, by itself, has a weight of 20 N. The long range-range attractive force between the magnets keeps the lower magnet in place. The upper magnet exerts a force of 6 Newtons on the lower magnet to keep it in place. a. Draw a fbd for each magnet and table. Determine all action/reaction pairs and connect them with dashed lines. b. Find the magnitude of all forces in your fbd and list them in a table.

Interacting systems problem (EOC #35) A rope attached to a 20 kg wooden sled pulls the sled up a 200 snow-covered hill. A 10 kg wooden box rides on top of the sled. If the tension in the rope steadily increases, at what value of tension will the box slip?
Interacting systems problem (EOC #35) Find the max tension in the rope, so the box does not slip. What are the objects of interest?What kind of axes for the FBD for each?Acceleration constraints?Draw FBDs, with 3rd law pairs connected with dashed lines.

I suggest starting with the equations for the box; its easier to deal with. Since friction is involved solve N’s 2nd Law in both y and x • Now, identify quantities in sled equations that you already solved for in box equations. • Use subscripts to avoid mixups. • Plug and chug. 0.06

Pulleys If we assume that the string is massless and the pulley is both massless and frictionless, no net force is needed to turn the pulley. TAonB and TBonA act “as if” they are an action/reaction pair, even though they are not acting in opposite directions.

Which of the following statements is true? • The truck exerts a larger force on the car than the car exerts on the truck. • The truck exerts a force on the car but the car doesn’t exert a force on the truck. • The car exerts a force on the truck but the truck doesn’t exert a force on the car. • The car exerts a larger force on the truck than the truck exerts on the car. • The car exerts the same amount of force on the truck as the truck exerts on the car.
Boxes A and B are sliding to the right across a frictionless table. The hand H is slowing them down. The mass of A is larger than the mass of B. Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the horizontal forces on A, B, and H. Ignore forces on H from objects not shown in the picture. There should be 4 forces.
