Accelerations
• Newton’s second law:
– Net force causes an object to accelerate.
– An object’s acceleration depends on its mass
– Equation:
Fnet
=
mass *
accelerate
– Words: Net Force causes mass to
– Same equation written another way:
accel
=
Fnet
mass
• People often say F = ma, but the better version is Fnet = ma
• Describe this in words.
• Textbook pages 58-59, 63-65

Figure 4.2 – with extra
labels, p. 59
Fnet/m = A
2Fnet/m
=2*A
(2Fnet)/(2m)
= Fnet / m
=A
Figure 4.11 – with
extra labels, p. 64
Fnet/m = A
Fnet/(2m) = ½ Fnet/m
=½A
Fnet/(3m) = (1/3) Fnet/m
= 1/3 A
Friction - what
• When does friction occur?
– When an object slides or attempts to slide across
another object.
• In which direction does friction push?
– In a direction to oppose relative motion.
• Note the word “relative” left out of your textbook!
• Sliding cart with scale
– Start slowly, pull stronger. Maximum friction force?
– Constant speed: how much friction force?
4 examples
• 5-kg box sits on flat floor. Maximum friction force
is 100 N. Draw a picture for each of the 4 cases.
– What is the net force in these cases?
– What happens to the box?
– Calculate acceleration.
1. You push to right with 70 N
2. You push to right with 100 N
3. You push to right with 110 N
4. You push to left with 120 N
Friction - why
• Why does friction occur?
– 1) Rubbing and 2) microscopic bonds form
where the bumpy surfaces touch. Figure 4.3:
What does friction depend on?
• Students pick answers.
• Surprising, NOT speed and NOT contact area
– How do we know?
– Except for “air resistance” (or friction inside any
gas/fluid )
• In these cases, friction happens because object moves
air/fluid out of the way)
• How “rough” the two surfaces are
• How much they’re squeezed together
3 Types of friction
• Sliding (kinetic) friction
– When two surfaces ARE sliding across each other
• Static friction
– When two surfaces are being pushed across each
other but neither has begun to slide
– The surfaces WOULD slide if there were no friction.
• Rolling friction (not in your [or almost any other] textbook)
– When one object rolls across a surface

Newton’s 3rd law causing unequal accelerations
• Newton’s 3rd law told us
– when two objects interact, both experience the same
force in opposite directions.
• Yet we “know” BIG truck “wins” and little car
“loses” in a collision.
• Why? [Rhetorical]
• On next slide, I’m going to color code car and truck.
In your notes, I suggest you somehow “color” code
them too.
Unequal accelerations, continued
•
Ftruck on car = Fcar on truck (N’s 3rd law)
• Ftruck on car makes car accelerate
– Ftruck on car = car mass * car acceleration (N’s 2nd law)
• Fcar on truck makes truck accelerate
– Fcar on truck = truck mass * truck acceleration (N’s 2nd law)
• Summary – putting it all together:
•
Ftruck on car = Fcar on truck (N’s 3rd law)
•
car mass * car acceleration = truck mass * truck acceleration
• Written more graphically:
•
car mass
* car acceleration = truck mass *
• And what do people feel?
truck acceleration
Simple gravity
• (More complicated version of gravity is our
next chapter, chap. 9 – we’ll come back to 6-8)
• Near surface of a world, we can say:
– All things accelerate equally
• On Earth: 10 m/s per sec (= 22 miles/hr per sec)
• On Moon: about 1/6 , 3.7 miles/hr per sec)
• The acceleration number is called “g”
– Force of gravity is called “weight” (symbol: w)
– w = mass of object * g
– Force depends on the mass of the thing falling and
the strength of the gravitational acceleration.
You have two balls of equal size and smoothness, and you can ignore air
resistance. One is heavy, the other much lighter. You hold one in each hand at
the same height above the ground. You release them at the same time. What
will happen?
1. The heavier one will hit the ground first.
2. They will hit the ground at the same time.
3. The lighter one will hit the ground first.

Falling with air resistance
• Air resistance depends on speed and “frontal”
(contact) area.
• One model of air resistance:
– Fair resistance = Area * speed * other things we ignore
• Coffee filter demo
– Regular
– Crumpled
• What forces act after you drop out of a very
high-up helicopter?
What is speed at the instant you drop out of
very high helicopter?

• People in the movies often jump out of planes
without a parachute, usually after the bad guy
takes the last parachute.
• What do the good guys do to survive?
• Why does this work?

• What do parachutes do?
– How does it affect terminal speed?

air resistance if dropped at same time?
