Key concepts: Words--east, west, north, south, right, left, up, down. Speed words--fast, slow, faster, slower. Real- world contexts: Motions of familiar objects in two dimensions, including rolling or thrown balls, wheeled vehicles, sliding objects. 2.Describe how forces (pushes or pulls) are needed to speed up, slow down, stop, or change the direction of a moving object. Key concepts: Changes in motion--speeding up, slowing down, turning. Common forces--push, pull, friction, gravity. Size of change is related to strength of push or pull. Real- world contexts: Playing ball, moving chairs, sliding objects. 3.Qualitative describe and compare motion in two dimensions. Key concepts: Two- dimensional motion--up, down, curved path. Speed, direction, change in speed, change in direction. Real- world contexts: Objects in motion, such as thrown balls, roller coasters, cars on hills, airplanes. 4. Relate motion of objects to unbalanced and balanced forces in two dimensions. Key concepts: Changes in motion and common forces--speeding up, slowing down, turning, push, pull, friction, gravity, magnets. Constant motion and balanced forces. Additional forces-- attraction, repulsion, action/ reaction pair (interaction force), buoyant force. Size of change is related to strength of unbalanced force and mass of object. Real- world contexts: Changing the direction--changing the direction of a billiard ball, bus turning a corner; changing the speed--car speeding up, a rolling ball slowing down, magnets changing the motion of objects, walking, swimming, jumping, rocket motion, objects resting on a table, tug- of- war. 5. Design strategies for moving objects by application of forces, including the use of simple machines. Real- world contexts: Changing the direction--changing the direction of a billiard ball, bus turning a corner; changing the speed--car speeding up, a rolling ball slowing down, magnets changing the motion of objects, walking, swimming, jumping, rocket motion, objects resting on a table, tug- of- war.

Conversely, given the definition, identify the correct term. acceleration, constant acceleration, force, inertia, kinetic energy, linear motion, mass, momentum, speed, time, velocity, weight, 2. Describe how forces (pushes or pulls) are needed to speed up, slow down, stop, or change the direction of a moving object by: 3.Describe and compare motion in two dimensions. Given the distance (x), the time (t) and the formula v = x / t, calculate the speed (v) of any object moving in a straight line with constant velocity. (Newton's First Law) 4. Relate motion of objects to unbalanced forces in two dimensions. (Newton’s Second Law) a. Given the formula f = m x a, calculate the force acting on an object with a mass (m), moving with a constant acceleration (a). b. Given the formula a = ( v final - v initial ) / time, compute the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line with constant acceleration. 5. Relate motion of objects to balanced forces in two dimensions. Given an object at rest or in motion identify the forces acting on the object. (Newton's third Law of Motion.) 5

10. Finding The Forces Activities 1.Have someone hold a 500-gram hooked mass (HM) in their outstretched hand. Use the arrows so indicate all the forces acting on the HM. 2.Hang the hooked mass from a rubber band. Use the arrows to indicate the forces acting on the HM. 3.Hang the hooked mass from a string. Release the string to drop the HM. (Please catch it.’) 4.Place the HM on a platform spring scale. 5.Place the hooked mass on a soft sponge or piece of foam rubber. The sponge should be soft and about the size of the HM. Push the HM with a horizontal force. The force you apply should be large enough to affect the sponge, but not so large as to make the sponge or the HM slide. 6.Place a coin at the edge of the table. Give it a flick with your finger so it hits the floor some distance away. Make a free-body diagram showing the forces acting on the coin (1) setting on the table, (2) while your finger is in the process of flicking it and (3) while it is moving through the air. 7.Out of a 3 x 5 card, make a device that allows you to flick one coin at the same time that you simply drop a second coin. 6

13. Types of Forces A force is defined as any push or pull that results in accelerating motion Circular - When objects move in circles, a force acts with a direction that is toward the center of the circle. We call this direction CENTRIPETAL Gravitational - All objects attract all other objects with a force called gravitational force. Electromagnetic - Electric forces act on objects when the object carries a net electric charge or a non-uniform distribution of charge. Magnetic force is also observed around a moving electric charge and act on those charges. Physicists believe that all magnetic forces are produced by moving charges. Frictional - Frictional forces are often classified as sliding, rolling, static and fluid. Sliding and rolling frictional forces result when solids in contact pass by each other. Static frictional force results when solids are in contact, at rest and when a force or forces are trying to cause them to move with respect to each other. Fluid frictional force results when a solid is moving through a gas or a liquid. Normal - “Normal” means “perpendicular to”. Whenever an object is placed on a surface, a force acts normal to the surfaces in contact. This causes the supporting surface to sag. Since this sagging is slight, it often goes unnoticed. However, it is always there and the resulting force of the surface attempting to return to its original position is perpendicular to the surface. Tension - Tension force is the force exerted by a string, spring, beam or other object which is being stretched compressed. The electric forces among the molecules give rise to the force.

22. What is Inertia? Answer: The tendency of matter to remain at rest if it is at rest or, if moving, the tendency to keep moving in the same direction unless acted upon by some outside force. 2 0

23. Newton’s Second Law When a force acts on a moving object, it will accelerate in the direction of the force dependent on its mass and the force. F = m x a
