  1. CH4: Forces and Newton's Laws of Motion Concepts of force, mass, and weight. Newton’s laws of motion. Newton’s law of gravitation. Friction: kinetic and static frictional forces Free-body-diagram: Identifying forces acting on an object

  2. 4.1 The Concept of Force In common usage, a force is a push or a pull. Forces can be categorized as, Contact forces and Non-Contact forces.

  3. Mass Massis a measure of the amount of matter contained in an object. Mass is a scalar quantity.

  4. Newton's First Law Of Motion An object continues in a state of rest or in a state of motion at a constant speed along a straight line, unless compelled to change that state by a net force. The net force is the vector sum of all of the forces acting on the object. Inertia is the natural tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion at a constant speed along a straight line. The mass of an object is a quantitative measure of inertia.

  5. Net Force The net force on an object is the vector sum of all forces acting on that object. Individual Forces Net Force 4 N 10 N 6 N

  6. Net Force Individual Forces Net Force 5 N 3 N 4 N

  8. Net Force Mathematically, the net force is written as where the Greek letter sigma denotes the vector sum.

  9. Inertial Reference Frame An inertial reference frame is one in which Newton's laws of motion are valid. The acceleration of an inertial reference frame is zero, so it moves with a constant velocity. Earth can be considered as an inertial reference frame.

  10. Newton's Second Law of Motion Newton’s second law is a relationship between acceleration, forces, and mass. When a net external force acts on an object of massm, the accelerationa that results is directly proportional to the net force and has a magnitude that is inversely proportional to the mass. The direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of the net force. SI Unit of Force: : kg · m/s2 = newton (N)

  11. Units

  12. 4.4 The Vector Nature of Newton's Second Law of Motion

  13. 4.5 Newton's Third Law of Motion Whenever one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body exerts an oppositely directed force of equal magnitude on the first body.

  14. Examples of Newton's 3rd Law

  15. Example 4 Suppose that the mass of the spacecraft in Figure 4.7 is mS = 11 000 kg and that the mass of the astronaut is mA = 92 kg. In addition, assume that the astronaut exerts a force of P = +36 N on the spacecraft. Find the accelerations of the spacecraft and the astronaut. Astronauts use a tether to stay connected to the space capsule.
