Title: Mental note for next year.


1
Mental note for next year. Do Hookes law here
with forces (or later with energy)
2
If an object is stationary, what will cause it
to start to move
A FORCE
3
But what is a force??
A force is a push or a pull on something by
something
Does a push have a direction?
FORCES ARE VECTORS, Magnitude and Direction
4
The force on the truck is a push by the man
Since the truck increased its speed we say that
it has..
Accelerated
5
Forces cause objects to accelerate in the
direction the force is applied.
6
What are the 3 ways an object can accelerate?
7
What is the direction of the force?
The car accelerates to the right (X)
8
Which way would you apply a force to cause the
truck to slow down?
The car accelerates to the left (-X) while slowing
9
In what direction should a force be applied in
order for the truck to make a right turn?
10
What if two people push equally hard on both
sides of the truck. In what direction will it
accelerate?
FORCES ARE BALANCED IF THEY ARE EQUAL AND
OPPOSITE.
But EQUAL what? and OPPOSITE what?
Equal Magnitude but Opposite Direction
11
What if two people push equally hard on both
sides of the truck. In what direction will it
accelerate?
FORCES ARE BALANCED IF THEY ARE EQUAL AND
OPPOSITE.
But EQUAL what? and OPPOSITE what?
Equal Magnitude but Opposite Direction
12
Forces are vectors if each what would you get if
you added to two vectors.
13
Balanced Forces cancel out in both magnitude and
direction
Consider the Forces acting on the balls below

14
If you shove a book across a table your
hand accelerates it. After it leaves your hand
what will happen to the books speed.
WHY does it slow down?
Friction
15
Galileo experimented with Spheres on a level
surface and found that they slowed very little.
Because they have very little friction
16
Galileo concluded if there was absolutely no
friction the ball would
JUST KEEP ROLLING AND NEVER STOP (Or even slow
down)
17
This is opposite what everyone thought (at the
time)
An objects natural state is at rest!
This was common sense regarding objects around
them. (planets had their own natural states)
18
Sir Isaac Newton studied how objects move too.
Developed calculus About the age of 20 in order
to describe motion
19
He lays the foundation for modern physics in his
book Principia when he was 24. The physics we
are learning now is called Newtonian Physics
which is modified by Einstein later. Newtonian
Physics is an approximation which works GREAT
unless you are dealing with EXTREME
circumstances. (moving close to the speed of
light etc)
20
In Newtons 1st of 3 laws of motion he restates
Galileo NEWTONs 1st LAW An object will move
at a constant velocity unless an unbalanced force
acts upon it
A force not cancelled out by another one
21
Which ball has a constant velocity?
Which ball has balanced forces?
Newtons first law is often stated as An object
at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in
motion tends to stay in motion UNLESS an
unbalanced force acts on the object.
22
If an object is stationary or moving in a
straight line at a constant speed its velocity is
constant. Forces must be balanced.
23
Two ping pong balls are launched into space and
experience no wind resistance or any other
forces. The first is launched at 25 m/s and the
other at 3 m/s. Which will come to a stop FIRST?
NEITHER--- THEY WILL BOTH KEEP MOVING FOREVER
24
Soccer ball hover disk demo
25
INERTIA the property of matter that resists
changing velocity. It is the laziness of matter
to just keep doing what it was doing.

Which way will tighten the hammer head to the
shaft.
29
Why isnt the top of the card flying forward?
30
If you are driving too fast and hit a tree head
on, What force would send you through the
windshield if you werent wearing your seat belt?
Crash Test - No seat belt
Crash Test - With seat belt
31
When people are hit from behind, sometimes they
experience whiplash. What is it and what causes
it?
32
You put your cell phone down in the seat next to
you while driving 60 mph. What happens?
33
What keeps a ball in motion after it is thrown?
Is inertia a force?
Does air exert a force? Does wind resistance
speed up or slow down a projectile?
34
A tennis ball has inertia, and you would have to
exert a force on it to slow it down from 25 mph
to a stop.
35
An 18 wheeler also has inertia, would you want to
slow it down from 25 mph?
36
HOW MUCH INERTIA an object has depends on its
Mass. The more mass an object has, the harder it
is to change its velocity. More massive objects
are lazier to speed up, slow down, or change
direction. INERTIA is NOT a force.

Mass Weight
101
What is matter?
I will summarize this at the end so dont take
notes on all this
MATTER -
anything that has mass and volume
Is everything matter?
102
What is matter and what is not?
Car
1 liter of nothing (a vacuum)
thought
Earth
feeling
water
air
light bulb
?
light
103
Volume
how much space an object takes up
104
Mass indicates how much matter is in an
object
On earth the more mass an object has the more it
weighs.
The more mass an object has the harder it is to
get moving or stop moving.(inertia)
105
Weight The force of gravity on an object
106
If you go into space, there is no gravity. So
you have no weight.
Did you lose any matter?
You still have the same mass but no weight.
107
Kicking cans 1 empty 1 filled with
sand 1 filled with lead.
The more mass an object has the more inertia it
has And the harder it is to get going.
108
If you and a huge fully loaded dump truck took a
trip to space
Could you grab it and shake it up and down easily?
109
Mass is measured in grams or kilograms
or slugs
Weight is measured in pounds or newtons
How do we measure mass on earth? With a scale
that basically measures its weight. If you took a
triple beam balance into space, even though it
says it measures mass it really measure weight.
110
SUMMARY write this down

115
A spring scale can be used to determine the mass
of an object.
Demo with a mass
Does it measure mass or force?
A spring scale measures force (show with
finger) It has a Newton scale also. How can it
tell us the mass of an object?
But the more mass an object has, the more weight
(Force) it has.

So if a net force is on an object it
accelerates Is that all there is too this?
What if I blew the yard blower on a tennis
ball, then a bowling ball?
154
IF the SAME Force is applied to different
objects, How quickly they speed up depends on
their

What force accelerates the car forward
FF tire, road
171
The answer can be found by simply jumping off an
untethered boat.
In order for you to make it to the dock the boat
must exert a force on you

172
The boat pushes you forward but.
You exert a force on the boat which is Equal in
magnitude Opposite in Direction

Forces come in pairs -action reaction
pairs For every action there is an equal and
opposite reaction (force)

174
Newtons 3rd Law
Or restated
Whenever two objects are in contact they exert
equal and opposite forces on each other called
action reaction.
this is NOT a conscious push or pull, it is an
inescapable law of nature.
175
Newtons 3rd Law
Reminder- the equal and opposite forces are on
DIFFERENT objects.

Activity Pair up and everyone take a spring
scale. Hook the ends together and
have 1 person pull with a force of 4 newtons and
the other with a force of 8 N

ice, who feels the bigger force?
196
A little kid and a big kid are holding a rope (on
frictionless ice) If the big kid yanks on the
rope, who feels the greater force?
They both feel the same amount of force!! Again
a consequence of Newtons 3rd law. A rope just
transfers that force.
197
Both objects connected to a rope feel same amount
of force. Think about what happens if one side
lets go.
198
Newtons Third Law Competition
There are 6 questions, work in groups of 4 Write
your answers on a piece of paper with your group
names Dont write on the hand outs. OK The group
that gets the most correct will get 2 BP per
person A tie will result in 1 BP for all members
involved. You have 10 minutes to come up with
your answers. Then we will go over them

Friction
What would life be like without it?
201
Friction
If an object slows down, where does its Kinetic
Energy go?
What causes it?
202
  • all surfaces are rough on a microscopic scale.

203
Frictional force can also be thought of as a lot
of teeny weeny normal forces resulting from
points of contact
204
also may be some attraction between the atoms and
molecules between two surfaces
This is definitely the case when it comes to many
adhesives
205
Two types of Friction
  • Force that opposes the motion or impending motion
    of two surfaces in contact

FF,box,ground
206
Kinetic or Sliding Friction- objects are sliding
Static Friction- objects are not sliding
FF,box,ground

DOES depends on
  • Types of material in contact (rougher more)

FF
  • Greater Normal force more friction
  • Whether the object is moving or not
  • (static is more than kinetic)
  • It does NOT depend on
  • the area of contact
  • the speed of movement

FF mFN
Normal Force in N
Friction Force in N
Coefficient of Friction Fudge Factor based on
Materials in contact Moving (kinetic, mK)
or Stationary (static, mS )
What are the units on m?

Why FN not just Fg
(sometimes they are the same) consider a
stationary box

212
Why FN not just Fg
(sometimes they are different) If another force
is pushing down or up
FN, box, floor
Fg, box, earth

213
Why FN not just Fg
(sometimes they are different) If another force
is pushing down or up
FT, box, rope
FN, box, floor
Fg, box, earth
214
Why FN not just Fg
(sometimes they are different) If the surface is
not level
FN, box, floor
Fg, box, earth

Block is stationary - STATIC FRICTION
(the harder you pull, the greater Friction
resists)

When the applied force exceeds the maximum
FF, the object slips and begins to move

The wheel of a tire is rolling down the road, the
driver hits the gas and friction drives the wheel
forward.
Is this Static Friction or Kinetic
Friction?
221
People have been known to let some air out of
their tires when street drag racing to get more
contact with the road. Does this help
acceleration?
222
What is weight?
What is a situation that makes you feel heavier
or lighter?
223
What does your bathroom scale measure?
Mass or Force
224
Is mass a force?
NO, but it can exert a force, What is causing the
person to exert a force
Fg m g
225
Weight is a force
It changes depending on where you are earth vs.
the moon
the acceleration on object would experience on
the moon is 1.6 m/s2 What force would 65.8 kg
exert there?
F ma 65.8 kg 1.6 m/s 110 N I have lost
84 of my weight!!
226
The FEELING of weight or weightlessness (like
that tickle in your stomach when you go over a
hill) comes from feeling the forces at work you.
Forces on your outside- like your butt in a
chair or feet on the floor Forces on your
inside- your guts being pushed by your pelvic
bone
227
Your apparent weight also depends on if youre
movement
How do you feel when?
The elevator starts upward
Heavier
after you get going
Same
Slowing down to a stop
Lighter
the elevator cord is cut
Weightless
228
FN,you,floor
you feel normal
F net 0
stationary
Fg,you,earth
You feel heavier not because you weigh more but
because the floor is pushing harder on you.
(Your pelvic bone has to push harder on your
insides as well)
229
FN,you,floor
you feel normal
F net 0
stationary
Fg,you,earth
moving up but slowing
You feel lighter not because you weigh more but
because the floor is barely pushing on you. You
get a tickle in your stomach
