motion only when a net force is applied.
• Relate the first law of motion to important
applications, such as seat belt safety issues.

Section 1 Laws of Motion
Bellringer
In some cases, an applied force is balanced by an opposite force,
and there is no change in motion. In other cases, an applied force
is not balanced by an opposite force, and the result is acceleration
in the direction of the applied force. Look at the following
illustrations, and identify the forces and motion in each one.
(Illustrations are shown on the next slide.)
1. In one drawing, no motion is likely to occur. Which drawing is it?
2. In which diagram are the forces clearly balanced? How does
this relate to your answer to item 1? If more force is exerted
by the person, does the opposite force increase to match the
new force, stay the same or decrease?
3. Suppose there is enough friction in the wheels of the wagon in
diagram c. to balance the force with which the wagon is
pulled. How will this affect the motion of the wagon?

Section 1 Laws of Motion
Newton’s First Law
• Newton’s first law of motion states that an object at
rest remains at rest and an object in motion maintains
its velocity unless it experiences an unbalanced
force.
• Objects tend to maintain their state of motion.
• Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist being
moved or, if the object is moving, to resist a change
in speed or direction until an outside force acts on the
object.

• Inertia is related to an object’s mass. Mass is a
measure of inertia.
• Seat belts and car seats provide protection.
• Because of inertia, you slide toward the side of a
car when the driver makes a sharp turn.
• When the car you are riding in comes to a stop,
your seat belt and the friction between you and the
seat stop your forward motion.

Newton’s Second Law
• Newton’s second law of motion states that the
unbalanced force acting on an object equals the
object’s mass times its acceleration.
• Force equals mass times acceleration.
Force = mass  acceleration
F = ma
• Force is measured in newtons (N).
1 N = 1 kg  1 m/s2

Free Fall and Weight
• Free fall is the motion of a body when only the force
of gravity is acting on the body.
• Free-fall acceleration near Earth’s surface is
constant.
• If we disregard air resistance, all objects near
Earth accelerate at 9.8 m/s2.
• Freefall acceleration is often abbreviated as the
letter g, so g = 9.8 m/s2.

• Weight is different from mass.

things.

weight.

You have learned that forces
account for changes in the
motion of objects. Using what
you have learned, explained
what happens in the following
situation:
An ice skater holding a
basketball is standing on the
surface of a frozen pond. The
skater throws the ball forward.
At the same time, the skater
slides on the ice in the opposite
direction.

Section 3 Newton’s Third Law
Action and Reaction Forces
• Newton’s third law of motion states that for every
action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction
force.
• Forces always occur in action-reaction pairs.
• Action-reaction force pairs are equal in size and
opposite in direction.

Section 3 Newton’s Third Law
Action and Reaction Forces, continued
• Force pairs do not act on the same object.
• When one object exerts an action force on a second
object, the second object exerts a reaction force on
the first object.
• Equal forces don’t always have equal effects.
• For example, the action force of Earth pulling on
an object and causing it to fall is much more
obvious than the equal and opposite reaction
force of the falling object pulling on Earth.

Momentum
• Momentum is a quantity defined as the product of
the mass and velocity of an object.
momentum = mass  velocity
p = mv
• Moving objects have momentum.
• For a given velocity, the more mass an object has,
the greater its momentum is.
• Likewise, the faster an object is moving, the
greater its momentum is.

• Force is related to change in momentum.
• When you force an object to change its motion,
you force it to change its momentum.
• Momentum is conserved in collisions.
• The law of conservation of momentum states that
the total amount of momentum in an isolated
system is conserved.

transferred to the second object.

same.

But you can disprove his hypothesis by dropping a

Why do falling objects not act as Aristotle thought

Answer:The acceleration due to gravity depends on the
total masses of the object and Earth. Because Earth
is so much larger than either of the objects, the
acceleration depends on the mass of Earth and is
the same for both objects.

The United States Air Force trains astronauts in a
large jet airplane, which is known as the “Vomit
Comet” because many people get airsick during its
flight. The plane accelerates upward and then falls
back toward Earth, in the form of an arc. At the peak
of its flight, the passengers seem to float inside the
plane, and objects around them appear to be
unaffected by gravity for about 20 seconds during
each arc.

the top of the arc.
