Motion & Forces
Speed & Velocity Speed - the rate of change in position over time (distance/time) Instantaneous speed Average speed How is velocity different from speed? Velocity describes both speed and direction
Change in Velocity What makes an object change velocity?
Force Push or Pull  Forces can cause a change in velocity Examples: Gravity Magnetism Friction
Balanced Forces Forces that act on the same object are opposite in direction are equal in size
Balanced Forces Book on table Weight of the book is downward force caused by gravity Table pushes back with an equal and opposite force Net force is zero
Unbalanced Forces Forces that are NOT opposite and equal What do they cause? CHANGE IN VELOCITY ACCELERATION
Friction Force that opposes motion between 2 surfaces Depends on the: types of surfaces force between the surfaces
Types of Friction Static Friction:  (Couch Potato) Force between objects at rest Sliding Friction:  (Ice skating) Solid surfaces slide over each other Rolling Friction:  (Rollerblading) An object rolls over a surface . Fluid friction:   (Submarine) An object moves through a fluid
Friction Friction is greater... between rough surfaces when there’s greater force between surfaces (such as more weight)
Lubricant Changes sliding friction into fluid friction
Friction Is friction always bad?
Gravity The attractive force between all objects in the universe
Acceleration of Gravity Near the surface of the earth the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s/s
Newton’s 1 st  Law An object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted on by unbalanced forces.
Newton’s Laws of Motion
Newton’s 1 st  Law INERTIA tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion increases as mass increases
Newton‘s 2 nd  Law If more force is applied, an object will be accelerated _____ more
Newton’s 2 nd  Law More force means  more  acceleration More mass means  less  acceleration Force = mass X acceleration F  =  ma
Newton’s 3 rd  Law For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.  Forces occur only in pairs Act on different objects Equal and opposite
Newton’s 3 rd  Law The hammer exerts a force on the nail to the right. The nail exerts an equal but opposite force on the hammer to the left.
Momentum
Terminal Velocity The final speed of a falling object.
Terminal Velocity Air resistance is offsetting the the weight of the object
 
Forces End
Force Aristotle's idea: For an object to move at a constant speed, a constant force must be applied.
Force Newton’s idea: An object moving at a constant speed will continue at that speed without additional force being applied.
