Let’s look at what we already know about forces.
What would happen with these pairs of magnets?
Will they attract or repel each other?
Write and draw what you think will happen, and
then we will see if you are correct.

Gravitational Force
Gravity is a
force that pulls
all objects
toward each
other.
http://www.engineeringinteract.org/resources/parkworldplot/flash/concepts/gravity.htm
•The force of gravity causes two objects of
different weights to fall to the ground at the
same time.

Which will hit the ground first?
They travel at
the same speed!
The size of the
mass does not
change the rate
of speed that
objects fall.

Friction
Friction can be reduced by using lubricants (like motor oil, wax, or grease), by
making surfaces smoother, or by using rollers.
Without friction, it would be very hard to slow or stop the motion of objects.

Balanced Forces
No Motion
Unbalanced Force
Unbalanced forces occur when one force is greater than its opposite force. They
cause the object’s motion to speed up, slow down, or stop. The object moves
in the direction applied by the greater force.
Unbalanced forces cause a non-moving object to start moving. They affect the
rate and direction of motion in objects.
Unbalanced Force
Think of the game tug-of-war:
If you are the only one pulling on your side, and on the other
side there are three people pulling, the forces are
unbalanced because it is three pulling against one.
However, if three people were on each side, the forces would
be more balanced, making the rope move less quickly.
If the Jeep was pulling another Jeep, the forces would be balanced and
neither would move very far because the force being used is the same
amount.
A change in force or
mass affects the
motion of an object

Forces acting on an object
We can experience the force of friction and the force of gravity
Friction - is a force that resists motion and we experience daily.
The force of friction is caused by microscopic particles touching
each other. These microscopic pieces on both surfaces cause
friction Ex. Walking
The force of friction is

Force Diagram: A diagram that shows all the forces acting in a situation
Free Body Diagrams p.127
Free Body Diagrams (FBDs) isolate an object and show only the forces acting
on it
FBDs are essential! They are not optional! You need to draw them to get most
problems correct!

A person is pushed forward with a force of 185 N.
The weight of the person is 500 N, the floor exerts
a force of 500 N up. The friction force is 30 N.

Symbol of Description
Force
Fg Gravitational Force is the Weight of
the Object (equal to mass x g= mg)
FN Normal Force= Force acting
perpendicular to surface of contact
Ff Frictional Force- Opposes applied
force; acts in direction opposite of
motion
Fapp Applied Force
Sample Problem p. 128 #3
Draw a free body diagram of a football being kicked. Assume that the only
forces acting on the ball are the force of gravity and the force exerted by the
kicker.
Newton’s 1st Law of Motion
The net external force (Fnet) is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an
object
Fdown = 236 N
Find the vector sum of forces
A. 82 N + (-115 N )= -33 N

Newton’s 1st Law
In other words, if the net external force acting on an object is zero, then the
acceleration of that object is zero

Example p. 138 # 4
A 2.0 kg otter starts from rest at the top of a muddy incline 85 cm long and
slides down to the bottom in 0.50 s. What net external force acts on the otter

The problem states that the chair is moving with constant
velocity, which means Fnet=0. Therefore, Fapp must equal -Fk.
