Section 5-8: Satellites and “Weightlessness”
Falling Objects and Gravity. Air Resistance When an object falls, gravity pulls it down. Air resistance works opposite of gravity and opposes the motion.
Apparent Weight. Acceleration of Gravity  Objects that fall to the Earth all experience an acceleration.  The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8.
Weight.
Physical Science Mr. Barry. Gravity is a Force  Every object in the Universe exerts a force on every other object  Gravity: force of attraction between.
 Calculate the acceleration that this object experiences 30 kg 150 N.
Weight and Gravitational Force
Gravity The force not the movie. Forces Force (N) is any influence that can change the trajectory, speed or shape of a body. Change in state of motion.
Aim: How can we explain the motion of elevators using Newton’s 2 nd law? Do Now: What is the acceleration of this object? m = 20 kg F = 150 N F = 100 N.
Newton’s Laws of Motion 1. If the sum of all external forces on an object is zero, then its speed and direction will not change. Inertia 2. If a nonzero.
Physics Unit Four Forces that Affect Motion. Force A push or a pull. Measured in newtons with a spring scale. 1 newton (N) = 1 kg m/s 2 An apple weighs.
Chapter 5 Circular Motion; Gravitation. 1. Use Newton's second law of motion, the universal law of gravitation, and the concept of centripetal acceleration.
SECTION 2 (PART 1) – Gravity. LEARNING GOALS  Describe gravitational force.  Distinguish between mass and weight.
Gravity and Free Fall.  Gravity - attraction between objects with mass  Gives weight  Causes free fall Gravity.

Satellites & “Weightlessness”. “Weightlessness” What keeps a satellite in orbit? The centripetal acceleration is CAUSED by the Gravitational Force! F.
Acceleration, Weight and Mass. Weight Near the surface of the Earth, the pull of gravity on a body is practically constant and every falling body acquires.

Introductory Physics. How we describe motion Speed – how fast something is moving Velocity – speed and direction Acceleration – change in velocity Acceleration.
What is a force? An interaction between TWO objects. For example, pushes and pulls are forces. We must be careful to think about a force as acting on one.
Apparent Weight. Apparent Weight of an object is the reading on a ___________ scale when that object is placed on it.
Gravitational Force  Gravity= a force of attraction between objects, “pulls” objects toward each other  Law of universal gravitation= all objects in.

Presentation transcript:

Comparison of weight and mass mass – measure of the amount of material in an object measure of an object’s inertia units – g, kg Measured by placing an object of unknown mass on a balance and comparing to an object of a standard known mass 20 kg

Comparison of weight and mass weight – measure of the pull of gravity on an object units – N Measured by placing an object on a spring scale to measure the downward pull of gravity

Calculating weight Fg = Fw = ma = mg Weight is the scalar of Fg and is found by multiplying an object’s mass times the acceleration due to gravity

“weightlessness” escape velocity –the minimum speed required to escape the pull of gravity, 11 km/s. microgravity – objects in free fall appear to be “weightless” because there is no normal force to balance gravitational force. http://galileoandeinstein.physics.virginia.edu/more_stuff/Applets/newt/newtmtn.html
