Acceleration
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes.
– Our bodies don’t feel velocity, if the velocity is constant.
– Our bodies feel acceleration.
• A car changing speed or direction.
• An elevator speeding up or slowing down.
Acceleration can be either a change in the object’s
speed or direction of motion.

Acceleration Due to Gravity
• Earth exerts a gravitational force on objects that is
attractive (towards Earth’s surface).
• Near Earth’s surface, this force produces a
constant acceleration downward.
– To measure this acceleration, we need to slow down the
action.
– Galileo was the first to accurately measure this
acceleration due to gravity.
– By rolling objects down an inclined plane, he slowed the
motion enough to establish that the gravitational
acceleration

Newton’s Contribution
• Newton built on Galileo’s
work, expanding it.
• He developed a
comprehensive theory of
motion that replaced
Aristotle’s ideas.

Galileo’s Contribution
• Galileo challenged Aristotle’s ideas that
had been widely accepted for many
centuries.
• He argued that the natural tendency of
a moving object is to continue moving.
– No force is needed to keep an object
moving.

Newton’s First and Second Laws
 Put Galileo's notions of motion on a mathematical footing with
calculus
 Set up the framework to explain motion.
 How do forces affect the motion of an object?
 What exactly do we mean by force? Is there a difference between,
say, force, energy, momentum, impulse?
 What do Newton’s first and second laws of motion tell us, and how
are they related to one another?
 Developed the first hints of a concervation law— Newton’s 3rd Law
of Motion.
 Developed the first formulation of a force—the gravitational force.

Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
•
Newton recognized the similarity
between the motion of a projectile on
Earth and the orbit of the moon.
•
If a projectile is fired with enough
velocity, it could fall towards Earth
but never reach the surface.
•
The projectile would be in orbit.
•
Newton’s law of universal gravitation
says the gravitational force between
two objects is proportional to the
mass of each object, and inversely
proportional to the square of the
distance between the two objects.

 Note that a force is proportional to an object’s
acceleration, not its velocity.
 Precise definitions of some commonly used terms:
 The mass of an object is a quantity that tells us how much
resistance the object has to a change in its motion.
 This resistance to a change in motion is called inertia.

• Common Sense: A picture is worth a 100 words.

• Isolate a single body and draw all the forces acting on it.
• Add up all the arrows (vectors).
