Force on “1” due to “2”
• Single isolated force cannot exist
• For every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction
• Action and Reaction Forces act on different
objects
Free-body Diagram
• Draw arrows for all
forces acting ON object
• If  F  0 the object is
in “equilibrium” (at rest
or constant v)
• Otherwise, find
r
acceleration by  F  ma
Ignore rotational motion for now.
Treat object as a particle.
Example 4.1

M1=2 kg and M2=3 Kg. A horizontal force F=5 N
is applied to Block 1.

Rules for Ropes and Pulleys
• Force from rope points AWAY from
object
• (Rope can only pull)
• Magnitude of the force is Tension
• Tension is same everywhere in the rope
• Tension does not change when going
over pulley
Approximations: Neglect mass of rope and pulley,
neglect friction in pulley

accelerates 2 m/s2. What is the tension in the rope?

Frictional Forces
• RESISTIVE force between object and neighbors
or the medium
• Examples:
• Sliding a box
• Air resistance
• Rolling resistance
Sliding Friction
• Parallel to surface,
opposing direction of motion
• ~ independent of
the area of contact
• Depends on the surfaces in contact
• Object at rest: Static friction
• Object in motion: Kinetic friction
Static Friction, ƒs
fs  m s N
• Just enough force to
keep object at rest.
• ms is coefficient of
static friction
• N is the normal force

child and sled combo has a mass of 30 kg and the
coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15. For each case:

prevent a sled from slipping down a
hill of slope 30 degrees?

impress his girl friend, who is the CEO of a large
accounting firm. The fish is hanging on a scale, which
reads 20 lb.s while the fisherman is stationary. Later,
he returns via the elevator to the ground floor with the
