NEWTONS LAWS OF
MOTION
45
3.1 FORCE
Forces are calssified as contact forces or
gravitational forces.
The forces that result from the physical contact
between the objects are called contact forces
and the forces that do not require physical
contact to affect are called field forces. The
gravitational and the electromagnetic forces are
examples of field forces. The force is a vector
quantity. The unit of the force in the SI unit
system is Newton, abbreviated N. In the cgs unit
system its unit is dyne with 1dyne=10-5 N, and
in the British unit system, the force's unit is
pound (lb).
3.2 NEWTON'S FIRST LAW
The law states that an object continues in
its state of rest or uniform motion until it is
forced to change that state by an external force.
Newton's first law sometime calle the law of
inertia.

Or

Two
masses m1 and m2 (m1>
m2) are suspended
vertically by a light
string that passes over a
light, frictionless pulley
as in Figure 3.4(a)
(Atwood's machine).
Find the acceleration of
the masses and the
tension in the string.

You can find the acceleration of the system by
applying Newton's second law to the whole
system.

(b) Applying Newton's law in the x-axis, we
obtain
Fx = mg sin fk = ma .
Substituting for
have
fk = k N = k mg cos , we
a = g (sin cos )

Fx = 300 cos 37 fk = ma .
But
fk = k N = 0.3(407) = 122 N ,
so
