Vocabulary:
Dynamics: The study of Forces and their interactions with matter.
Force: (F) A push or a pull. (A vector quantity, has magnitude and
direction.)
Inertial Mass: (m) The property of matter that makes it resist being
accelerated.
Gravitational Mass: (m) The property of matter that makes it attract
other matter at a distance.
Weight: (w) The force of gravity on an object
W = mg
Weight = mass * acceleration of gravity
1 Newton = (kg) *
(m/s2)

Newton’s Laws of Motion
Newton’s First Law- INERTIA
An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will
remain in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
Newton’s Second Law – FNET = ma
Newton’s Third Law – Action-Reaction
For every applied force there is an equal and opposite reaction
force.

A sprinter accelerates uniformly from rest for 4 seconds. If the
sprinter covers a distance of 40 m, find the acceleration of the
sprinter and the final velocity of the sprinter.
a) How much force would you have to apply to a 50 kg mass on a
surface with a coefficient of static friction of 0.8 to make the mass

b) If the mass above has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.3, at
what rate would the mass accelerate after it starts sliding (assume
the same force continues to be applied.)

Dynamics Unit
Vocabulary:
Centripetal Acceleration: Acceleration of an object with a velocity
that is changing direction. (Always directed inward toward the
center of the circular motion, perpendicular to the velocity.)
Equilibrium: An object is at equilibrium when its acceleration is
zero. (That includes when the velocity is constant.)
Free Body Diagram: A diagram of one body in a system showing all
the forces that act on that body.
Dynamics Unit
Formulas
W = mg
FNET = ma ( SFforward – SFbackward = ma }
Ffriction = m Fnormal (Remember the difference between Static and
kinetic friction)
acentripetal = v2/R (always directed perpendicular to the velocity,
toward the center of the circle.)

Impulse and Momentum
F = ma
F = m (Dv/Dt)
F Dt = m Dv = mvf – mvo (Impulse-Momentum Theorem)
J = Impulse = F Dt (units: N-s or Kg-m/s)
Momentum = p = mv (units: kg-m/s)
ptotal before = ptotal after (Momentum Conservation)
Area Under F-T = Impulse (= Dp)

During A Collision

J12 = F12 t12 & J21 = F21 t21
But…
t12 = t21 (Common Sense)
F12 = -F21 (If N’s 3rd Law is true)
So J21 = F21 t21 = -F12 t12 = - J12
And J = mDv so in every imaginable collision,
m1Dv1 = -m2Dv2
