FOCUS QUESTION(S)
What are Newton’s
three laws of
motion?
Objective(s)



1. Explain how force affects the
motion of an object.
2. Distinguish between contact
forces and field forces.
3. Interpret and construct free-body
diagrams.
Think about the following questions:
What is this object? Where is it? Why does it look
like that?
Erupting Volcano!!
IO is a moon of Jupiter
Competing forces between Jupiter and the
other Galilean moons cause the center of
Io compress and melt. Consequently Io
is the most volcanically active body in the
solar system.
Other examples of forces
What is a force?

IPC definition: A push or a pull exerted on
some object

Better definition: Force represents the
interaction of an object with its environment

The Unit for Force is a Newton
kgm
1N  1 2

Two major types of forces

Contact Forces: Result from physical contact
between two objects


Examples: Pushing a cart, Pulling suitcase
Field Forces: Forces that do not involve
physical contact

Examples: Gravity, Electric/Magnetic Force
Force is a vector! (yay more vectors )

The effect of a force depends on
magnitude and direction
Force Diagrams (p. 126)

Force Diagram: A diagram that
shows all the forces acting in a
situation
Free Body Diagrams p.127


Free Body Diagrams (FBDs) isolate
an object and show only the forces
acting on it
FBDs are essential! They are not
optional! You need to draw them to
get most problems correct!
How to draw a free body diagram
Situation: A tow truck is pulling a car
(p. 127)
We want to draw a FBD for the car
only.
Steps for drawing your FBD


Step 1: Draw a shape representing
the car (keep it simple)
Step 2: Starting at the center of
the object, Draw and label all the
external forces acting on the object
Force of Tow
Truck on Car=
5800 N
Add force of gravity
Force of Tow
Truck on Car=
5800 N
Gravitational
force (Weight

14700 N
Add force of the road on the car
(Called the Normal Force)
Normal Force =
13690 N
Force of Tow

14700 N
Finally add the force of friction acting
on the car

ball at the same instant. One
player kicks with a force of
65 N to the north, while the
other player kicks with a
force of 88 N to the east. In

SECTION 2
Objective(s)



1. Explain the relationship between
the motion of an object and the net
external force acting on it.
2. Determine the net external force
on an object.
3. Calculate the force required to
bring an object into equilibrium.
Newton’s 1st Law of Motion

The Law of Inertia


An object at rest remains at rest, and
an object in motion continues in motion
with constant velocity (constant speed
in straight line) unless the object
experiences a net external force
The tendency of an object not to
accelerate is called inertia
Acceleration


The net external force (Fnet) is the
vector sum of all the forces acting
on an object
If an object accelerates (changes
speed or direction) then a net
external force must be acting upon
it
Equilibrium


If an object is at rest (v=0) or
moving at constant velocity, then
according to Newton’s First Law,
Fnet =0
When Fnet =0, the object is said to
be in equilibrium
How do we use this information?
Sample Problem p. 133 #2

A crate is pulled to the right with a force
of 82.0 N, to the left with a force of 115
N, upward with a force of 565 N and
downward with a force of 236 N.



A. Find the net external force in the x direction
B. Find the net external force in the y direction
C. Find the magnitude and direction of the net
external force on the crate.
Step 1: Draw a FBD
Fup = 565 N
Fleft = 115 N
Fright = 82 N
Fdown = 236 N
Find the vector sum of forces

A. 82 N + (-115 N )= -33 N

B. 565 N + (-236 N) = 329 N

C. Find the resultant of the two
vectors from part a and b.
R = 331 N at 84.3 North of West
329 N
33 N
Newton’s 1st Law

Review Newton’s 1st Law:


When Fnet=0, an object is in equilibrium
and will stay at rest or stay in motion
In other words, if the net external
force acting on an object is zero,
then the acceleration of that object
is zero

What is Newton 2nd and 3rd Law of Motion?
The net force exerted by a woodpecker’s
head when its beak strikes a tree can be as
large as 4.90 N, assuming that the bird’s
head has a mass of 50.0 g. Assume that two
different muscles pull the woodpecker’s head
forward and downward, exerting a net force
of 4.90 N. If the forces exerted by the
muscles are at right angles to each other and
the muscle that pulls the woodpecker’s head
downward exerts a force of 1.70 N, what is
the magnitude of the force exerted by the
other muscle? Draw a free-body diagram
showing the forces acting on the
woodpecker’s head.

resistive force that keeps objects
stationary


In order to get the chair moving, it was
necessary to apply 365 N of force to
overcome static friction. Therefore Fs =
365 N.
The normal force is equal to the weight
of the chair (9.81 x 25= 245 N)

What is Fnet?


Since the suitcase is moving with
constant velocity, Fnet=0.
That means the forces in the x direction
have to cancel out and the forces in y
direction have to cancel out

Fk = Fapp,x

FN + Fapp,y = Fg

NOTICE THAT NORMAL FORCE DOES NOT
EQUAL WEIGHT IN THIS SITUATION

Fg=Weight=925 N
Finding Fnet,y

Is box accelerating in y direction?

No. Therefore Fnet in y direction is 0

So FN + Fapp,y = Fg

So FN = Fg- Fapp,y= 925 N- 325sin(25)

FN= 787.65 N
Finding Fnet,x

Is box accelerating in x direction?

Yes. Therefore Fnet,x is not 0

Fnet,x= Fapp,x – Ff


Fapp,x = Fappcos(25)=294.6 N
Use coefficient of friction to find Ff

Ff=μFN=(0.25)(787N)=197 N
Finish the Problem


Fnet,x = 294 N – 197 N= 97 N
So now we know that the Fnet on the

Find Fnet

Is box accelerating in y direction?

No. Therefore Fnet in y direction is 0

So FN = Fapp,y + Fg

So FN = 485sin(35) + 319 N= 598 N
Fnet,x
Is box accelerating in x direction?
Yes. Therefore Fnet,x is not 0
Fnet,x= Fapp,x – Ff
Fapp,x = 485cos(35)=397.29 N
Use coefficient of friction to find Ff
Ff=μFN=(0.57)(598)=341 N
Fnet, x = 397.29- 341= 57.29 N
So now we know that the Fnet on the box is
