4. What is force?  FORCE = A push or pull that changes an object’s velocity  A change in velocity = acceleration  As a result, forces can cause objects to speed up, slow down, or change direction

5. What are the units for force?  UNIT: Newton (N) MeasurementUnit DistanceMeters (m) TimeSeconds (s) Velocitym/s Accelerationm/s 2 ForceNewton (N)

6. Yes! By making it speed up! Is the pitcher exerting a force on the baseball?

7. Yes! By making it stop! Is the outfielder exerting a force on the baseball?

8. Yes! By changing its direction! Is the batter exerting a force on the baseball?

9. What is Net Force?  Usually more than one force is acting on an object  NET FORCE = the overall force acting on an object

10. What are Balanced Forces?  Forces are balanced when the net force = 0  When two or more equal forces act on an object in opposite directions  Generally, NO ACCELERATION occurs

11. What are Unbalanced Forces?  Forces are unbalanced when net force ≠ 0  When unequal forces act on an object. One force is greater than another  Object Accelerates

17. Examples of Forces 1.Applied 2.Friction 3.Gravity 4.Normal Force

18. Applied Force  The force one applies to push an object in a particular direction.

19. Friction Force  Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact.  The roughness of two objects rubs together, which slows the object down – slowing down = deceleration, which means friction must be a force!

20. Gravitational Force  Gravity is the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass  If gravity causes objects to accelerate at a rate of - 9.8 m/s2, then it must be a force!

21. Normal force (Support Force)  Normal Force (Support Force) = The upward force that balances the weight of an object on a surface.  Doesn’t cause an object to accelerate.

22. LAB: Let’s Measure Force!! 1. Read through the Background information for the lab. (2 mins) 2. We will read through the procedure as a class.
