Road Rally
You are driving in a road rally race in the desert where you are
judged on how close you arrive at the finish line to a specific
time. At the last pit stop, you are given the following directions
for the last leg of the race:
• Drive East at 50 MPH for 30 minutes and
• Then go 30 degrees East of North for 45 minutes at 60 MPH
1. What would be your average speed from the pit stop to the
finish line?
2. What would be the magnitude and direction of your average
velocity during this time?
3. Find the magnitude and direction of the average acceleration
during the first hour of driving.
Galileo (1564-1642)
Developed the idea of experimental
science
Re-examined natural motion of objects
and how objects move
Made astronomical observations that
challenged Earth-centered solar system
model.
Newton (1642-1727)
Newton's work based on experiments of how
objects interact.
His laws of motion and law of gravity described
how all objects interact with each other.

Quick Points
•
Free-body diagram is another name for force diagram
•
Weight force is another name for gravitational force
•
All objects exert gravitational forces on one another
• These forces are too small to be noticed unless one
object is at least the size of the Sandia Mountains

Example Problem
An elevator, lifted by a cable, is going up at a steady speed.
• Identify the forces acting on the elevator.
• Is T greater than, equal to, or less than w? Or is there not
enough information to tell?
•
A => FT > Fg
•
B => FT = Fg
•
C => FT < Fg

forces acting on the block.
Slide 4-26
Example Problem
Block A hangs from the ceiling by a rope. Another block B hangs
from A. Identify the forces acting on A.
Slide 4-27
Example Problem

back and released. Identify the forces acting on it just
after its release.

Newton’s Second Law
What happens when Fnet is not = 0?
acceleration is a change in speed or a change in direction of speed.
