Projectile motion Projectile motion

The curved path that an object follows when thrown, launched, or otherwise projected

near the surface of the Earth.

The curved path that an object follows when thrown, launched, or otherwise projected

near the surface of the Earth.

Centripetal force: Centripetal force:

An unbalanced force meaning “towards the center” that causes objects to move in a circular path.

An unbalanced force meaning “towards the center” that causes objects to move in a circular path.

Inertia Inertia

The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion until acted on by an unbalanced force.

The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion until acted on by an unbalanced force.

Action/reaction pairs Action/reaction pairs

All forces act in pairsThe action of one object causes the

equal and opposite reaction of the other

All forces act in pairsThe action of one object causes the

equal and opposite reaction of the other

Momentum Momentum

“Mass in motion”; the product of the mass and velocity of an object.

“Mass in motion”; the product of the mass and velocity of an object.

Any time that objects collide, the total momentum will stay the same

Any time that objects collide, the total momentum will stay the same

Newton’s First Law:

An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion until

acted on by an unbalanced force.

Newton’s First Law:

An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion until

acted on by an unbalanced force.

Newton’s Second Law: Acceleration depends on force and mass

How is it expressed mathematically?

A = F/m

Example : Pushing a shopping cart full of groceries requires more force than an empty cart if you want to keep the acceleration the same

Gravity Gravity

If you are shooting an arrow trying to hit the bulls eye of a target, explain where you must

aim the arrow and why.

If you are shooting an arrow trying to hit the bulls eye of a target, explain where you must

aim the arrow and why. You must aim higher than the bulls

eye because you need to account for gravity impacting the vertical motion and pulling the arrow down.

Calculate the acceleration of a 40 kg object that is pushed with a 2N force.

Calculate the acceleration of a 40 kg object that is pushed with a 2N force.

a = F/m a = 2 kg X m/s2

40 kg a = .05 m/s2

a = F/m a = 2 kg X m/s2

40 kg a = .05 m/s2

Calculate the acceleration of a 80 kg object that is pushed with a 2N force.

Calculate the acceleration of a 80 kg object that is pushed with a 2N force.

a = F/m a = 2 kg X m/s2

80 kg a = .025 m/s2

a = F/m a = 2 kg X m/s2

80 kg a = .025 m/s2

Which will require more force to accelerate an object at the same rate, a bowling ball or a

golf ball? Explain why.

Which will require more force to accelerate an object at the same rate, a bowling ball or a

golf ball? Explain why.

A bowling ball will require more force because it has more mass.

A bowling ball will require more force because it has more mass.

If a bus and a bike are traveling with the same velocity do they have the same momentum? Explain your answer.

If a bus and a bike are traveling with the same velocity do they have the same momentum? Explain your answer.

A bus will have more momentum because it has a larger mass than the bike does.

Use Newton’s law of inertia, centripetal force and gravity to explain why planets

orbit the Sun.

Use Newton’s law of inertia, centripetal force and gravity to explain why planets

orbit the Sun.

The inertia that planets have (left over from the big bang) that causes it to “want” t travel away is balanced by the gravitiation force of the Sun which causes a centripetal force and causes the planets to orbit the Sun.
