2. Friction Notes Friction: the force that two surfaces exert on each other when they rub against each other. Factors Affecting Friction: 1) surfaces pushing together 2) rough versus smooth surfaces 3) lubricants (oils, grease) Example: Press (rub) forcefully ~ high friction Rough surface ~ high friction Press (rub) lightly ~ low friction Smooth surface ~ low friction

3. Friction: a force that acts in a direction opposite to the direction of the object’s motion. Four (4) types: Static Friction: firction that acts on objects that are not moving. Static greater than sliding, rolling, fluid friction. Sliding Friction: friction when two surfaces slide over each other. Rolling Friction: friction when an object rolls across a surface. To reduce friction, use wheels or ball bearings. Fluid Friction: Friction when an object moves through a fluid. To reduce friction, use oils & lubricants; streamline. most friction least friction static sliding rolling, fluid

4. Types of Friction Fluid friction

5. Gravity Notes Gravity: is an attractive force between objects containing mass. Factors Affecting Gravity: Mass - amount of matter (atoms) in an object Distance - length between two points increase mass ~ increase gravity increase distance ~ decrease gravity

7. Weight & Mass Mass: the amount of matter (atoms) in an object. Weight: the gravitational force exerted on an object’s mass. Weight = gravity x mass So: more weight (person) = more gravity (earth) x same mass (person) less weight (person) = less gravity (moon) x same mass (person) Why? Moon ~ less mass, less gravity Earth ~ more mass, more gravity (10x Moon)

8. Gravity & Motion Free Fall: only gravity acting on a falling object. Objects accelerate as they free fall because gravity is an unbalanced force. In a vacuum, all objects in free fall accelerate at the same rate regardless of their masses. Gravitational acceleration near Earth is 9.8 m/s 2.

9. Air Resistance: is a type of fluid friction as an object falls through the air. Greater surface area of object ~ increase in air resistance ~ slower the object falls. Air resistance increases as velocity increases.

10. Gravity & Motion Terminal Velocity: maximum velocity of a free falling object occurs when the force of air resistance equals the weight of the object. Terminal velocity represents balanced forces where upward air resistance equals downward gravity.

11. Projectile Motion: Projectile : an object that is thrown. A projectile (with horizontal motion) will fall at the same rate as any dropped object.
