Misconceptions• A soccer ball sits _______________. You come along

and ____________, sending it _________ across the field. It eventually ________ to a _______. You _____________ a _________ to start it ___________, and then it ____________ all on its own, right?

• No!• _________ cause all __________ in _________. Just

as you __________ a __________ to the ball to __________ it up from ________, the ____________ applied a ________ to _________ it down to a _______. If the ground _________ apply a force to the ball, it would ________________ forever __________ slowing down or ______________.

Forced to Change• Misconception: __________________________________________________________________________• Fact: __________________________________________________________________________________

How are Forces Described?• Force – a _________________________________• When one __________ pushes or ________ another

________, the first object ________ a _________ on the ___________ object

• Ex: You exert a __________ on a computer ______ when you ___________

• Ex: You exert a ________ on a ________ when you pull it ________________________

• Force is _____________ by its _____________ and by the _____________ in which it acts

• ___________ to the _______ is a _______________ from ___________ to the __________

• The _____________ and _____________ can be represented by an ___________

• The arrow _________ in the ____________ of the ________

• The arrow _________ tells you the ___________ (ex: the ___________________, the _______________________)

• The ___________ of the force is ______________ in the SI unit called a _____________, after the scientist Sir ___________________

• _____________ is the force that ___________ a _______________ mass to _______________ at a rate of 1 meter per second each second __________

• A _________ can cause a ___________ object to ________, or it can _____________ a _________________ by ______________ the object’s ___________________________

How do Forces Affect Motion?• Often ____________________ force acts on an

_________ at the __________________• The _________________ of all the __________ on

an object is called the ______________• The net force _______________ if and _______ an

___________ will _________________• When the ____________ on an object are

_____________, the net force is ________ and there is ______________ in the object’s _________

• When an _________________________ acts on an object, the _____________________________

• You can ________ the ________________ on an object by ____________ together the ______________ of _____ the individual __________ acting on the object

• Look at the figure below

• The big dog pushes on the box with a force of 16 N to the right

• The small dog pushes on the box with a force of 10 N to the right

• The net force on the box is the sum of these forces• In the situation, there was a nonzero net force• A nonzero net force causes a change in the object’s

motion

What if the Forces on an Object are not acting in the same Direction?

• The big dog pushes with a force of 20 N• The small dog pushes with a force of 10 N• The dogs are pushing against each other

• When the forces on an object act in opposite directions, the strength of the net force is found by subtracting the strength of the smaller force (think negative) from the strength of the larger force (think positive)

• When forces act in opposite directions, the net force is in the same direction as the larger force

• In the example, the box will accelerate to the right

Let’s try a few examples...

• Use what you know about net force to describe the motion of the box in the figure. Assume the box starts at rest.

• 1. You pull on your dog’s leash to the right with a 12 N force. Your dog pulls to the left with a 6 N force. Sketch this situation, including labeled force arrows.

• 2. What is the net force on the leash? Calculate it. Draw and label it.

• What's the definition of balanced forces?________________________________________________________________________________________• What's the definition of unbalanced forces?________________________________________________________________________________________• When forces are unbalanced and in opposite

directions, what is the combined force equal to? What direction is it?

________________________________________________________________________________________• Use your answers above to explain what happens

in a arm-wrestling stand-off.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________• How is a tug-of-war stand-off similar to an arm-

wrestling stand-off?____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
