Warm Up - Create a Picture in your IAN for Each of the Statements Below. Must use AT LEAST 4 Colors! WILL BE GRADED! An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Newton’s Laws of Motion
Regarding Motion, Newton says: “In order to move an object with mass, you need to apply a force” The greater the mass = The greater inertia => more force is needed
Force – push or pull and causes things to accelerate 1000 kg Force
Balanced vs. Unbalanced Forces Balanced Forces - no acceleration in any direction Unbalanced Forces – one force is greater than the other causing acceleration in a direction
Balanced Forces 5 N Equal Pushing Object Forces will cancel each other and produce NO ACCELERATION!
Balanced Forces If these football players push on each other equally as hard, will either one move?
Balanced Forces Gravity pulls down on you, the ground pushes back up, KEEPING YOU WHERE YOU ARE!
Unbalanced Forces 10 N 5 N Object Not Equal Pushing Forces will not cancel each other out and produce ACCELERATION!
Net Forces 10 N 5 N Object What is the net force and in what direction? (10 N) – (5 N) = 5 N to the right
20 N Object What is the net force and in what direction? (20 N) + (5 N) = 25 N to the right 5 N Net Forces
15 N 30 N Object What is the net force and in what direction? (30 N) – (15 N) = 15 N to the left Net Forces
10 N Object What is the net force and in what direction? (10 N) – (10 N) = 0 N Net Forces
Unbalanced Forces Forces will not cancel each other out and produce ACCELERATION!

Inertia – The tendency of an object to resistance a change in motion; resist a push/pull (force) Newton’s 1 st Law of Motion: –once in motion an object stays in motion - unless acted upon by another outside force –An object at rest stays at rest – unless acted upon by another outside force First Law of Motion
Because of inertia, objects (including you) resist changes in their motion. When the car going 80 m/hour is stopped by the brick wall, your body keeps moving at 80 m/hour. Newton’s First Law and You
Second Law of Motion Force = mass acceleration (F = m a) Acceleration depends on the object’s mass and the force acting on the object More Force = More Acceleration More Mass = Less Acceleration
Second Law of Motion If you apply more force to an object, it accelerates at a higher rate
Second Law of Motion If the same force is applied to an object with greater mass, the object accelerates at a slower rate because mass adds inertia
Second Law of Motion
A car rolls down a ramp with a force of 2 newtons. The car has a mass of 0.5 kg. What is the acceleration of the car? F = m a (2 N) (0.5 kg) = 4 m/s 2 F m a
Third Law of Motion Downwards force Upwards motion For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
