12.1 Force
12.1 Forces
How do forces affect the motion of an object?


Force – a push or a pull on an object
Forces cause changes in velocity
 Acceleration - change the objects speed
 or direction

Measured
 Scale, Force Sensor

Unit – measured in Newton’s (N)
 A medium apple will apply a force
of about 1 N

12.1 Forces
How do forces affect the motion of an object?
 Forces are vectors so they are drawn using arrows
(show magnitude and direction)

Net Force – the overall force acting on an
object after all the forces are combined
 Balanced forces – the net force is zero, no
acceleration
 Unbalanced forces – objects accelerate

12.1 Forces
What are the four main types of friction


Friction – a force that opposes the motion of
objects that touch as they move past each
other
Four Types
 Static Friction – when objects aren’t moving
 Sliding Friction – when objects are sliding past
each other
12.1 Force
12.1 Forces
What are the four main types of friction
 Rolling Friction – allows movement forward, but
not side to side
 Fluid Friction – when an object is moving through
a fluid
▪ Fluids are liquids or gases – anything that flows
▪ Air resistance is a form of fluid friction
12.1 Force
12.1 Forces
How does gravity and air resistance affect a falling object

Gravity – the force of attraction between any
two objects with mass
 Earth’s gravity points toward the center of the
earth – pulls anything with mass
 Called weight
12.1 Force
12.1 Forces
How does gravity and air resistance affect a falling object
 When an object is falling, two forces act on it
 What do you think they are?
▪ Weight
▪ Air Resistance
Air
Resistance
 Objects will accelerate because of gravity until
they reach a terminal velocity – the speed at which
the weight and air resistance are equal
 For example – terminal
Gravity
speed of a raindrop is about
(Weight)
9 m/s
 Human – 76 m/s

12.2 Newton’s 1st and 2nd Laws
of Motion
How does Newton’s first law relate change in motion to a
zero net force?
How does Newton’s second law relate force, mass, and
acceleration?
How are weight and mass related?
12.1 Force
12.2 Newton’s 1st & 2nd Laws
How does Newton’s first law relate change in motion to a zero net force

Newton’s First Law of Motion
 The state of motion of an object does not change
as long as the net force acting on the object is zero
 More commonly
▪ An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in
motion remains in motion, unless acted on by an
outside force.
 Sometimes called the law of inertia
▪ Inertia – the tendency of an object to
resist a change in its motion
12.1 Force
12.2 Newton’s 1st & 2nd Laws
How does Newton’s second law relate force, mass, and acceleration

Newton’s Second Law of Motion
 The acceleration of an object is equal to the net
force acting on it divided by the object’s mass.
F  ma
 F – Force in Newtons
 m – mass in kilograms
 a – acceleration in m/s2
 Always in the same direction as the net force
