  1. Notes 10-2 (Part I) Friction & Gravity

  2. Friction • A force 2 surfaces exert on each other when they rub against each other • Acts as an unbalanced force to slow motion down • The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and how hard the surfaces push together • 4 types of friction

  3. 1) Static Friction • Acts on objects that are not moving • You must exert a force greater than the force of static friction to make the object move

  4. 2) Sliding Friction • Occurs when two solid surfaces slide over each other

  5. 3) Rolling Friction • Occurs when an object rolls across a surface • Rolling friction is less than sliding friction for similar surfaces

  6. 4) Fluid Friction • Occurs when a solid object moves through a fluid, such as air, water, oil, etc. • Fluid friction is usually less than sliding friction

  7. Gravity • Force that pulls towards the center of the earth • Newton realized that gravity acts everywhere, not just on earth • Called the Law of Universal Gravitation • Any 2 objects in the universe attract each other

  8. Gravity Between Objects • The force of gravity between objects increases with greater mass and decreases with greater distance.

  9. Mass and Weight • Mass is how much matter is in an object • The gravitational force exerted on a person or object at the surface of a planet is known as weight. • Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity Acceleration due to gravity at Earth’s surface = 9.8 m/s2

  10. Free Fall • If the only force acting on the object is gravity, it is said to be in free fall • An object in free fall is accelerating because of the force of gravity at a rate of 9.8 m/s/s • This means that every second an object is free falling, it increases its velocity 9.8 m/s • Is this affected by mass? If dropped from the same height at the same time, will a heavier object fall faster?

  11. Free Fall • No! If there are no other forces to consider, then the objects will fall at the same rate, regardless of mass

  12. Air resistance • A type of fluid friction that acts on objects falling through the air • An upward force acting on a falling object

  13. Air Resistance • Falling objects with a greater surface area experience more air resistance.

  14. Projectile Motion • Occurs when an object is thrown horizantally • Gravity will act on the object in the same way as it does when an object is dropped vertically

  15. Who can remember Newton’s First Law of Motion? • An object will remain at rest or moving at a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by an unbalanced force.

  16. Newton’s 2nd Law • Acceleration depends on the net force acting on the object and on the objects mass • Acceleration = Net Force Mass Or Net Force = Mass x Acceleration

  17. A speedboat pulls a 55-kg water-skier. The skier to accelerates at 2.0 m/s2. Calculate the net force that causes this acceleration. Read and Understand What information have you been given? Mass of the water-skier (m) = 55 kg Acceleration of the water-skier (a) = 2.0 m/s2 Calculating Force

  18. A speedboat pulls a 55-kg water-skier. The skier accelerates at 2.0 m/s2. Calculate the net force that causes this acceleration. Plan and Solve What quantity are you trying to calculate? The net force (Fnet) = __ What formula contains the given quantities and the unknown quantity? a = Fnet/m or Fnet = m x a Perform the calculation. Fnet = mxa= 55 kg x 2.0 m/s2 F = 110 kg • m/s2 F = 110 N Calculating Force

  19. A speedboat pulls a 55-kg water-skier. The skier accelerates at 2.0 m/s2. Calculate the net force that causes this acceleration. Look Back and Check Does your answer make sense? A net force of 110 N is required. This does not include the force that overcomes friction. Calculating Force

  20. Practice Problem What is the net force on a 1,000-kg object accelerating at 3 m/s2? 3,000 N (1,000 kg x 3 m/s2) Calculating Force

  21. Practice Problem What net force is needed to accelerate a 25-kg cart at 14 m/s2? 350 N (25 kg x 14 m/s2) Calculating Force
