Physics 1 HonorsChapter 5 – Newton’s Second Law of Motion
Sections 5.1 to 5.4
An object at rest stays at rest until a force acts on it.
Once in motion it will continue to move with the same velocity until a force acts upon it.
A force must be applied to cause an acceleration.
What causes acceleration?
2
Often there is more than one force acting on an object.
Therefore, acceleration is caused by a net force.
Acceleration ~ net force
~ means “is directly proportional to”
Net Force
3
When two values are directly proportional, as one value increases, so does the other value.
Example – mass and volume – as the mass increases, so does the volume.
The proportionality between the two is called density. For a given material, density is constant no matter how large the sample is.

Push on a chair with Joe in it.
Which accelerates more?
Why?
Mass Resists Acceleration
6
For a given force, the mass is inversely proportional to the acceleration
When two values are inversely proportional, as one value increases, the other value decreases.
Or as mass increase (for the same force) acceleration decreases.

The acceleration produced by a net force on an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, is in the same direction as the net force, and is inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Newton’s Second Law
netforceacceleration
mass
Force – Newtons Mass – kilograms
Newton= kg x m/sec2
Force/mass = m/sec2 (acceleration)
10
Units
What happens if you triple the force, with the same mass?
What happens if you triple the mass, with the same force?
What happens if you triple the force and triple the mass?
11
Newton’s Second Law
What would be the force necessary to accelerate a 1700 kg car to an acceleration of 20 m/sec2?
12
Example
Affects motion
Must have 2 surfaces in contact.
Always acts in the direction opposite motion.
Depends on the kind of materials in contact.
13
Friction
Give an example of 2 surfaces with high friction.
Give an example of 2 surfaces with low friction.
14
Friction
Not limited to just motion of solids.
Also occurs in liquids and gases.
Both liquids and gases are fluids – they flow.
15
Friction
Occurs when an object pushes aside (displaces) the fluid it is moving through
Try running in a pool.
16
Fluid Friction
This is friction acting on something moving through air.
Put your hand out the window of a moving car.
17
Air Resistance
If an object is moving at constant velocity and there is friction, what needs to happen to make this occur?
What is the net force in this situation?
