Motion and Forces

Explore the fundamental concepts of motion and forces that govern how objects interact. A force is defined as a push or pull that can change the motion of an object, as seen in games like billiards. Learn how forces can combine to create net force and how inertia plays a crucial role in resisting changes in motion. Whether objects are stationary or in motion, the impact of forces is essential to understanding movement in our world. Discover the principles that shape the dynamics of everyday activities.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Motion and Forces You just can’t force some things…

  2. May the force be with you…always… • A force is a push or pull • A force can cause the motion of an object to change. • If you have played billiards, you know that you can force a ball at rest to roll into a pocket by striking it with another ball.

  3. Rack ‘em • The force of the moving ball causes the ball at rest to move in the direction of the force. • Force does not always change velocity.

  4. Balancing act - When two or more forces act on an object at the same time, the forces combine to form the net force. - Forces with opposite directions will counteract each other.

  5. Working together… • Forces that have the same direction, can be added together.

  6. I’m not lazy, its just inertia… • Inertia (ih NUR shuh) is the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion. • Inertia is resistance to movement. • Moving objects will not change velocity or direction unless an outside force acts on them. • Stationary objects will not move at all unless acted on.
