What is a force?

• A force is a push or pull

Types of Forces

• 1. Gravity• 2. Friction

• Forces such as gravity and friction can affect the speed and direction of an object.

•  

Friction

• Friction is a force that occurs when one object rubs against another object.

• Friction is the Force that one surface exerts on another surface when they are moving across each other.

• Friction will cause a moving object to slow down and finally stop.

• Two factors determine the amount of friction –

• (1) the kinds of surfaces, and • (2) the force pressing the surfaces

together. (how hard the surfaces are pushed together during the motion )

– The slowing force of friction always acts in the direction opposite to the force causing the motion.

– Friction Opposes motion• Examples: rubbing hands together, gym

sneakers allowing you to stop better on the gym floor (compared to dress shoes)

• Friction can also be the force that makes it difficult to start an object moving.

• Enough force must be applied to a

nonmoving object to overcome the friction between the touching surfaces.

• The smoother the two surfaces are, the less friction there is between them; therefore, the moving object will not slow down as quickly.

– Friction between surfaces can be reduced, in order for objects to move more easily, by smoothing the surfaces, using wheels or rollers between the surfaces, or lubricating/oiling the surfaces.

– If friction could be removed, an object would continue to move.

• The greater the force pushing the two surfaces together, the stronger friction prevents the surfaces from moving.– As an object gets heavier, the force of friction

between the surfaces becomes greater.– To move a heavy object, a greater force must

be applied to overcome the friction between the surfaces.

Gravity (force that pulls objects down)

• Gravity is a force that always attracts or pulls objects toward each other without direct contact or impact.

• Gravity is a force of attraction, or a pull, between objects.

• Gravity pulls objects down.• Do gravity affects everything? ____________

• Gravitational attraction depends on the mass of the two objects and the distance they are apart.

• Objects on Earth are pulled toward the center of Earth.

• The force of gravity, like all other forces, can cause changes in the speed of objects.

• As an object falls, its speed will continually increase as Earth’s gravity continually pulls it downward.

• Gravity can also cause an object that is thrown into the air to change its upward motion, slow down, and fall back toward Earth’s surface.

• The pull of Earth’s gravity keeps the Moon in orbit; the moon is constantly changing direction because of gravity.

How Does Mass Affect Gravity?

• Imagine an elephant and a cat. Because the elephant has a larger mass than the cat does, gravity between the elephant and Earth is larger. So, the cat is much easier to pick up than the elephant. The gravitational force between objects depends on the masses of the objects.

• Objects with Larger or Heavier Mass has a larger gravitational attraction?

• Objects with a smaller mass has a smaller gravitational attraction.

How Does Distance Affect Gravity? • The mass of the sun is 300,000 times bigger than that of Earth.

However, if you jump up, you return to Earth every time you jump rather than flying toward the sun. If the sun has more mass, then why doesn’t it have a larger gravitational pull on you?

• This is because the gravitational force also depends on the distance between the objects.

• As the distance between two objects gets larger or further, the force of gravity gets much smaller.

• And as the distance between objects gets smaller or shorter, the force of gravity gets much greater.

• Although the sun has tremendous mass, it is also very far away. This means that it has very little gravitational force on your body or on small objects around you. The sun does have a large gravitational force on planets because the masses of planets are very large.

Air Resistance

• When air resistance is ignored, all objects will speed up at the same rate as they fall.

• What is air resistance? Air resistance opposes the downward motion of a falling object.

• Any falling object meets air resistance.

Force and Mass

• 8-5.4 Predict how varying the amount of force or mass will affect the motion of an object.

•  

•  • Varying the amount of force or mass will

affect the motion of an object.

Force: A Push or Pull

• If an object is in motion and more force is applied to it, the object will begin moving faster.

• If two objects have the same mass and a greater force is applied to one of the objects, the object which receives the greater force will change speeds more quickly. For example if a ball is hit harder, it will speed up faster.

Forces

• If an object must be slowed down quickly, the force applied to the object must be greater than what is needed for a gradual slowing down. For example, the greater the force applied to the brakes of a bicycle, the more quickly it will slow down or stop.

Forces

• Varying the amount of force applied to a moving object can also change the direction that the object is moving more or less quickly. For example, a baseball pitched toward the batter may quickly change direction and speed if hit very hard, or may change direction and speed more slowly if hit softly as with a bunt.

Mass

• What is Mass?• Mass is the amount of matter in an object.

• What is matter?• Matter is anything that has mass and

volume.

Mass

• If a heavy (more massive) object is in motion, more force must be applied to get the object moving faster.

• If the same force is applied to two objects, the object with the smaller mass will change speeds more quickly. For example if a baseball and a bowling ball are thrown with the same force the baseball will speed up faster.

Mass

• In order to slow down or stop a heavier (more massive) object, the force on that object must be greater than for a less massive object. For example, if the same braking force is applied to a small car and a large truck, the car will slow down more quickly.

Mass

• It is more difficult to change the direction of a heavy moving object, than one that is lighter in mass.

What is the difference between weight and mass?

WEIGHT MASS• Weight is a measure of the force gravity on

an object • Weight is a force• (Weight varies according to the

force of gravity pulling on you) Therefore, Your weight will vary depending on your location (On top of a mountain vs. being at sea level.

• Weight can change       

• Amount of matter in an object 

• Mass is not a force

• Mass is the same anywhere on Earth

• Mass is constant

• 8-5.5 Analyze the resulting effect of balanced and unbalanced forces on an object’s motion in terms of magnitude and direction.

Forces

• Forces have a magnitude (strength) and a direction. (The unit for Force is Newton (N)

Forces

• Forces can be represented as arrows with the length of the arrow representing the magnitude or strength of the force and the head of the arrow pointing in the direction of the force.

• Using such arrows, the resulting force (net force) and direction can be determined.

Balance vs. Unbalance Forces

• Forces acting on an object can be balanced or unbalanced.

Balance Forces

• Balanced forces will cause no change in the motion of an object. (No Movement)

• Balanced forces acting on an object in opposite directions and equal in strength, as shown in the arrows below, do not cause a change in the speed/magnitude or direction of a moving object.

Balance Forces

• Objects that are not moving will not start moving if acted on by balanced forces. – For example, in arm wrestling where there is no

winner, the force exerted by each person is equal, but they are pushing in opposite directions. The resulting force (net force) is zero.

•• 5N 5N

Balance Forces

– Or, in a tug of war, if there is no movement in the rope, the two teams are exerting equal, but opposite forces that are balanced. Again, the resulting force (net force) is zero.

•  • 5N 5N

Unbalanced Forces

• Unbalanced forces are not equal, and they always cause the motion of an object to change the speed and/or direction that it is moving.

Unbalance Forces

• When two unbalanced forces are exerted in opposite directions, their combined force is equal to the difference between the two forces. – The magnitude and direction of the net force

affects the resulting motion. – This combined force is exerted in the

direction of the larger force.

Unbalance Forces

– For example, if two students push on opposite sides of a box sitting on the floor, the student on the left pushes with less force (small arrow) on the box than the student on the right side of the box (long arrow). The resulting action (net force: smaller arrow to the right of the =) shows that the box will change its motion in the direction of the greater force as shown below:

•• 5N 10N 5N

Unbalance Forces

• Or, if in a tug of war, one team pulls harder than the other, the resulting action (net force) will be that the rope will change its motion in the direction of the force with the greater strength/magnitude as shown below:

•  • 5N 10N 5N

Unbalance Forces

• If unbalanced forces are exerted in the same direction, the resulting force (net force) will be the sum of the forces in the direction the forces are applied.

Unbalance Forces

• For example, if two people pull on an object at the same time in the same direction, the applied force on the object will be the result of their combined forces (net force or longer arrow to the right of the =) as shown below:

• 5N + 10N = 15N

Unbalance Forces

• When forces act in the same direction, their forces are added. When forces act in opposite directions, their forces are subtracted from each other.

• Unbalanced forces also cause a nonmoving object to change its motion

Balance vs. Unbalance Forces

• If there is no net force (balance force) acting on the object, the motion does not change . If there is net force (Unbalance force) acting on an object, the speed of the object will change in the direction of the net force.

•  

When the net force is Zero.-> NO movement

When the net force is NOT Zero.-> movement

2 Kg ?

Inertia

• 8-5.6 Summarize and illustrate the concept of inertia.

Inertia

• Inertia is the tendency of objects to resist any change in motion. Inertia is a property of the object; it is not a force.

Inertia

• It is the tendency for objects to stay in motion if they are moving or to stay at rest if they are not moving unless acted on by an outside force.

Inertia

• The more mass an object has, the harder it is to start it in motion, to slow it down or speed it up, or to turn it.

• In other words, the more mass an object has, the more inertia it has.

The greater the mass the harder it is to move. And . . .the harder it is to stop moving.

Lower mass objects are easier to move . . .and to stop moving.

Examples of the effects of inertia might include:

• Inertia causes a passenger in a car to continue to move forward even though the car stops. This is the reason that seat belts are so important for the safety of passengers in vehicles.

•  • Inertia is the reason that it is impossible

for vehicles to stop instantaneously.

Examples of the effects of inertia might include:

• Inertia is the reason that it is harder to start pushing a wheelbarrow full of bricks than to start pushing an empty wheelbarrow. The filled wheelbarrow has more mass and therefore, more inertia.

•  • Inertia is also the reason that it is harder to stop a loaded

truck going 55 miles per hour than to stop a car going 55 miles per hour. The truck has more mass resisting the change of its motion and therefore, more inertia.
