4. Introduction  We are all subject to Newton’s laws of motion.  Our lives are constrained and regulated by these three fundamental statements concerning matter and its motion.  Newton’s Laws are recognized as the indispensable foundation for Physics.

5. Force and Mass  A force is a PUSH or a PULL applied to an object.  Two quantities characterize a force: magnitude and direction.  Due to these two quantities, Force is considered a vector.  An object’s mass is a measure of how difficult is to change its velocity. How much force must be applied to take/bring an object from/to rest. Also, how much effort is needed to change its direction.  Mass is measured in Kg (kilograms).

6. Newton’s First Law 1.A force is required to change an object’s motion. 2.Why an object that receives a initial push, usually stops after some time? Newton’s First Law An object at rest remains at rest as long as no net force acts on it. An object moving with constant velocity continues to move with the same speed and same direction as long as no net force acts on it.

7. Newton’s First Law  Newton’s First Law is also known as the “Law of Inertia”  According to Newton’s first law, being at rest and moving with constant velocity are actually equivalent.  If the net force of an object is zero, its velocity is constant. (Discuss it!)

8. Newton’s Second Law  When you hold any object in your hand, you have to exert an upward force equivalent to the force of gravity applied on the object.  If you remove your hand, the object would accelerate downward.  Newton’s second law basically states that UNBALANCED FORCES CAUSE ACCELERATIONS.

9. Newton’s Second Law  Acceleration is Proportional to Force

10. Newton’s Second Law  Acceleration is Inversely Proportional to Mass

11. Newton’s Second Law  Combining these results, we find that in the simple case where with just one force in just one direction, the acceleration is given by: Acceleration = Force / Mass  Rearranging the equation we arrive at Newton’s Second Law: Σ F = ma m = mass F = force a= acceleration  Because this is a vector relationship, the direction of a vector’s acceleration is the SAME as the NET FORCE acting on it.

12. Newton’s Second Law  In terms of vectors components, we can derive the second law in terms of x, y, and z axis. Σ F x = ma x Σ F y = ma y Σ F z = ma z If the sum of all forces acting on an object is zero, the acceleration of the object must be zero. This proves the first law of Newton. Explain Force unit of measurement if newton (N).

14. Practice Session 5.Foamcrete is a substance designed to stop an airplane that has run off the end of a runaway, without causing injury to passengers. It is solid enough to support a car, but crumbles under the weight of a large airplane. By crumbling, it slows the plane down to a safe stop. Suppose that a 747 with a mass=1.75 x 10 5 Kg and an initial speed of 26.8 m/s is slowed to a stop in 122 meters. What is the magnitude of the retarding force F exerted by the Foamcrete on the plane?

15. Practice Session 6.A jetliner lands and begins to slow to a stop as it moves along the runaway. If its mass is 3.50x10 5 Kg, its speed is 27 m/s, and the net braking force is 4.30 x 10 5 N. (a) What is the speed 7.50 secs later? (b) How far it traveled in this time?

16. The Gravitational Force and Weight  All objects are attracted to earth. This attractive force is called gravitational force F g. It is directed towards the center of the earth and its magnitude is called the weight of the object.  F g = mass (m) x acceleration of gravity (g)  Because it depends on g, weight varies with geographic location. Objects weight less at higher altitudes  Kilogram is a unit of mass not weight.

17. Newton’s Third Law “ If two objects interact, the force F 12 exerted by object 1 on object 2 is equal in magnitude and opposite direction to the force F 21 exerted by object 2 on object 1.” F12 = - F21 “The action force is equal in magnitude to the reaction force and opposite in directions.”
