SECOND LAW OF MOTIONIf there is a net force acting on an object, the object will have an acceleration and the object’s velocity will change.

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that for a particular force, the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. The direction of the force is the same as that of the acceleration. In equation form:

SECOND LAW OF MOTION

 In the SI system, the unit for force is the newton (N):

A newton is that net force which, when applied to a 1-kg mass, gives it an acceleration of 1 m/s2.

Acceleration and Force With Zero Friction Forces

Pushing the cart with twice the force produces twice the acceleration. Three times the force triples the acceleration.

Acceleration and Mass Again With Zero Friction

F F

aa/2

Pushing two carts with same force F produces one-half the acceleration. The acceleration varies inversely with the mass.

THIRD LAW OF MOTION According to Newton's third law of motion, when one body exerts a force on another body, the second body exerts on the first an equal force in opposite direction.

The Third Law of Motion applies to two different forces on two different objects: " For every For every action force, there must be an action force, there must be an equal and opposite reaction equal and opposite reaction force.force. "

Action and reaction forces never balance out because they act on different objects.

Newton’s Third Law

• Third Law: For every action force, there must be an equal and opposite reaction force. Forces occur in pairs.

• Third Law: For every action force, there must be an equal and opposite reaction force. Forces occur in pairs.

MASS

The property that a body has of resisting any change in its state of rest or of uniform motion is called inertia.

The inertia of a body is related to the amount of matter it contains. A quantitative measure of inertia is mass.

The unit of mass is the kilogram (kg).

WEIGHT (FG)

Weight (a vector quantity) is different from mass (a scalar quantity). The weight of a body varies with its location near the Earth (or other astronomical body), whereas its mass is the same everywhere in the universe. The weight of a body is the force that causes it to be accelerated downward with the acceleration of gravity g.

FG = mg Units: Newtons (N)

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

THE NORMAL FORCE

A normal force is a force exerted by one surface on another in a direction perpendicular to the surface of contact.

Note: The gravitational force and the normal force are not an action-reaction pair.

APPARENT WEIGHTThe actual weight of a body is the gravitational force that acts on it. The body's apparent weight is the force the body exerts on whatever it rests on. Apparent weight can be thought of as the reading on a scale a body is placed on.

“Weightlessness”

More properly, this effect is called apparent weightlessness, because the gravitational force still exists. It can be experienced on Earth, but only briefly:

FRICTION: STATIC AND KINETIC FRICTION Frictional forces act to oppose relative motion between surfaces that are in contact. Such forces act parallel to the surfaces. Static friction occurs between surfaces at rest relative to each other. When an increasing force is applied to a book resting on a table, for instance, the force of static friction at first increases as well to prevent motion. In a given situation, static friction has a certain maximum value called starting friction. When the force applied to the book is greater than the starting friction, the book begins to move across the table.

The origin of friction: on a microscopic scale, most surfaces are rough.

FRICTION: STATIC AND KINETIC FRICTION The kinetic friction (or sliding friction) that occurs afterward is usually less than the starting friction, so less force is needed to keep the book moving than to start it moving.

COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION The frictional force between two surfaces depends on the normal force FN pressing them together and on the natures of the surfaces. The latter factor is expressed quantitatively in the coefficient of friction (mu) whose value depends on the materials in contact. The frictional force is experimentally found to be:
