Warm-up 2/16/11 Review: Tell me anything you can think of
about Newton’s Laws (even if it’s the obvious).
Review: List any forces acting on you now as you sit in your desk and if you were to get up and give me a dollar.
Teach the Teacher: Who is the most inspiring person in your life (besides me)?
Newton’s Laws of Motion They are hard to break
NEWTON If I have seen farther
than other men, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants." -Isaac Newton
When Newton made that famous statement, he was referring to such giants as Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler, and, most specifically, Galileo Galilei
History behind the First Law of Motion
Prior to Galileo and Newton's work on motion, it was believed that the natural tendency of objects was to come to rest. › Sooner or later, moving objects would stop moving. › Meaning that some force was necessary to keep an
object in motion. Aristotle and Ptolemy.
Galileo boldly asserted the exact opposite. He reasoned that moving objects eventually
stopped moving due to a force called friction. Galileo's Experiment Galileo developed the concept of inertia.
What Galileo did: Galileo's Experiment
The ball would roll forever…..Like in space
Newton’s First Law of Motion - INERTIA Objects at rest stay at rest unless acted on by another force. Objects in motion stay in motion unless acted on by another force
There is a natural tendency for objects to resist changes in their state of motion.
Inertia INERTIA – The resistance of an object to a
change in its state of motion.
The more mass an object has, the greater inertia.
Shooting Objects at RestThe object’s inertia causes it to remain still
even when a bullet passes through it.
FORCE› is a push or a pull › can give energy to
an object causing the object to: start moving, stop moving, change its motion.
Force, Mass & Acceleration
For any object, the greater the force applied to it, the greater its acceleration.
The acceleration of an object depends on its mass as well.
Force, mass, and acceleration are connected.
Balanced vs. Unbalanced Balanced forces
› They are equal in size and opposite in direction
› Do NOT cause a change in motion.
› Result in a zero net force Net force is the
result of all the forces acting on the object
Unbalanced forces › They are
unequal in size and or in the same direction
› Cause a change in motion
Units The SI unit for mass =kilogram
(kg) The unit for acceleration = meters
per second squared (m/s2) So the unit for force = kg x m/s2
The kg x m/s2 is called the newton (N)
Tugboat Problems Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat
A exerts a force of 3000 Newtons on the barge. Tugboat B exerts a force of 5000 Newtons in the same direction. What is the combined force on the barge? Draw arrows showing the individual and combined forces of the tugboats.
Tug Boat Questions Now suppose that Tugboat C exerts a
force of 2000 Newtons on the barge and Tugboat D exerts a force of 4000 Newtons in the opposite direction. What is the combined force on the barge? Draw arrows showing the individual and combined forces of the tugboats.
Tugboat questions Could there ever be a case when Tugboat
E and Tugboat F are both exerting a force on the barge but the barge doesn't move? Draw arrows showing the individual and combined forces in such a situation.

Newton’s Second Law The acceleration of an object is
dependent upon the force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.
Actions into Equations Newton’s Second Law can be written as
the equation: F = m x a F = force (N) Newton is
the SI Unit of force m = mass (kg) N = kg m / s2
a = acceleration (m/s/s)
Solving the 2nd Law
Friction A force that opposes motion
between two surfaces that are touching each other
The amount of friction is dependant upon› Surfaces› Force pressing the surfaces
together
Types of Friction Static Friction
› Friction between two objects that are NOT moving.
Sliding Friction› Friction between two surfaces moving
past each other. Rolling Friction
› Friction between a rolling object & the surface it is rolling on.
Fluid Friction › Friction between an object and a gas or
liquid

Air Resistance When an object falls, it is pulled
downward by gravity. Air resistance—a force that
acts on objects as they fall through the air.
The amount of resistance on an object depends on the speed, size, and shape of the object.› A feather will fall more slowly than
an apple
Air Resistance Dependent on…
a variety of factors, most importantly› the speed of the object
Increased speeds = increased air resistance.
› the cross-sectional area of the object Increased cross-sectional area =
increased air resistance.
List the examples of friction in this picture
Gravity Universal law of Gravity
› Any two objects will exert an attractive force on each other
› The size of the force is dependant on Mass of both objects Distance between
the objects
Falling Objects on Earth Near Earth’s surface Acceleration due to
gravity › 9.8 m/s2 or ~ 10 m/s2
If a bowling ball and a marble are dropped from the same height, which would hit the ground first?

Weight vs. Mass Weight
› Force of gravity pulling you toward the earth
› SI Base Unit = Newtons› Weight can change with a
change in location. Mass
› A measure of how much matter any object has
› You know an object has mass because it has inertia
› SI Base Unit = Kilograms › http://www.exploratorium.edu

Target: Newton’s Third Law
NEWTON’S 3rd LAWFor every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
“Action” and “Reaction” are names of forces
Forces ALWAYS occur in pairs Single forces NEVER happen action reaction pairs
“Equal” In Newton’s Third Law, “equal”
means: Equal in size.
› The action and reaction forces are EXACTLY the same size.
Equal in time.› The action and reaction forces
occur at EXACTLY the same time.
& Opposite In Newton’s Third Law, “opposite”
means:
Opposite in direction› The action and reaction forces are
EXACTLY 180o apart in direction.
Why don’t the forces cancel each other out?
Only forces pushing or pulling on an object affect the object’s motion.
Only forces that act on the same object can cancel.
Newton’s Third Law action and reaction forces act on different objects, so they don’t cancel.
Writing Action Reaction Forces
Action force: “A action verb B” Reaction force: “B action verb A”
› ACTIONBowling ball hits the pin to the left.
› REACTIONPin hits the bowling ball to the right
The action and reaction forces don’t cancel since they push on different objects.
Momentum
A property related to how much force is required to change the objects motion
The product of the objects mass and velocity
p = mv› p = momentum› m = mass› v = velocity
SI UNIT = Kg m / s
Law of Conservation of Momentum
Momentum may be transferred to another object
The total momentum before a collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision
m1v1 = m2v2 interactive
