FrictionForce acting parallel to an interface that
opposes the relative motion
Static – frictional force opposite to applied force - magnitude fs
where s is the coefficient of static friction and n is the magnitude of the normal forces between the surfaces
the equality holds just as the object starts to slip

Friction
Kinetic – frictional force opposite to relative motion – magnitude fk
where k is the coefficient of static friction and n is the magnitude of the normal forces between the surfaces
the kinetic frictional force is constant
s and k are constants that depend on the nature of the surfaces
Usually, s > k

Friction
Note: Static friction is not constant – it is whatever is needed to match the applied force, up to the limit of Sn
As the applied force increases, the static frictional force also increases, until the limit, then the object begins to slide, and the frictional force goes to a constant value

Newton’s 2nd law applied to uniform circular motion
A mass in uniform circular motion (speed v) accelerates
according to
This acceleration must be caused by some force
along a direction towards the center of the radius of curvature (r)

Nonuniform circular motion
If an object changes its speed while in circular motion, there is both a radial and a tangential component to the acceleration, therefore, there will be a radial and tangential force applied.
Example: mass moving in a vertical circle

Mechanics 105
Velocity dependent forces
Two models:
1. Force proprtional to the velocity (viscous, low speed)
b is a constant that depends on the object size and
shape and the medium2. Force proportional to the square of the magnitude of
the velocity (air, high speed)D: drag coefficient: density of airA: cross sectional area of object

Fundamental forces of nature
Gravitational: force between any two objects
where G is the universal gravitational constant
Electromagnetic: force between two charged objects (q)
where ke is the Coulomb constant
Nuclear (strong) – short range
Weak – short range

Gravitational field
Field: the effect in a region of space that induces a force on an object
e.g the field (created by a mass) exerts the force on the other masses
