What is a force??
Examples:
Question:
Types of Forces:
Gravitational (FG):
The force of attraction
between two bodies
depending on their masses
and distance
Types of Forces:
Normal (FN):
The resistant reaction of a
bodys surface to a force by
another body in contact,
usually due to gravity
Types of Forces:
Tension (FT ):
The force when an object is
pulled from another object.
Types of Forces:
Friction (FF ):
The force that opposes
motion.
Force of Friction:
Friction is a contact force due to
electromagnetic attraction at the atomic level.
Newtons Laws
Law of Inertia:
Question:
Newtons Laws:
Example:
The strength of gravity at the Earth's surface is 10
newtons per kilogram. Calculate the weight of a car
with a mass of 1500 kg.
Answer:
The formula is:
Weight = Mass Gravity
Hence:
Weight = 1500 10
= 15000 newtons
