Gravitational Force


Gravity (Gravitational force Earth pulling on objects
around it), weight: W, Fg
On surface of Earth, gravity is always straight
downward, with a magnitude of
W  mg

Gravitational force always exist, but value of g is
different at different location.

On surface of earth, g = 9.8 m/s2.
Higher elevation, smaller g.
Higher latitude, larger g.

Newton, the unit of force)

Contact force:
 Force giver and receiver must be in contact
 Tension, push, normal force, friction, …

Field force / Distant force:
 Force giver and receiver do not have to be in contact
 Gravity, electric force, magnetic force, …

Unification of Forces

Electromagnetic and weak forces have been
unified into one force: Electroweak force

It is believed that all four forces are different
aspects of a single force.

Supersymmetric theories

Newton’s First Law of Motion
Law of Inertia

An object with no net force acting on
it remains at rest or moves with
constant velocity in a straight line.




11
No net force is needed to keep a
motion/velocity.
A net force is needed to change a
motion/velocity.
Net force = 0  Object at Equilibrium.
A special case of Second Law of
Motion.
Newton’s Second Law of Motion

The acceleration of a body is directly proportional
to the net force on it and inversely proportional to
its mass.

 Fnet  ma

Unit of Force:

F = ma  [F] = [m] [a] = kg 2 = Newton = N

Example:
Together a motorbike and rider have a mass of 275 kg. The
motorbike is slowed down with an acceleration of –4.50 m/s2.
What is the net force on the motorbike? Describe the direction
of the force and the meaning of the negative sign.

The negative sign indicates that the force is opposite
to the direction of motion.
Practice:

in 53 m. What is the size and direction of the force that
acted on the car? What provided the force?

Newton’s Third Law of Motion

When one object exerts a force on a second
object, the second object also exerts a force on the
first object that is equal in magnitude but opposite
in direction.

Action-reaction forces always exist together.
Action and reaction forces are of the same kind of
fundamental force--both are electromagnetic, or both
are gravitational.
Action and reaction forces act on two different objects
and therefore do not cancel out each other when only
one object is considered.
Action and Reaction Forces


In general, the force
acting on the object under
consideration is the action
force, and the other is the
reaction.

Action force: ground supporting the box, Fgb
Reaction force: box pushing on the ground, Fbg
How To Find Reaction Force
1.
2.
Identify the force giver and receiver of the
force.
Reversing the order of force giver and
receiver, you will get the reaction force.

What is mass?
Mass is an intrinsic property of an object.


It does not change.
It does not depend on the object’s position, velocity,
acceleration, temperature, or …
Two methods to measure mass: two kinds of mass


23
Inertial mass: m = F / a
Gravitational mass: comparing gravitational force on the
object whose mass to be measured to gravitational force on
an object of known mass
Tension


Tension is along the line.
Tension points away from the object.
T

Normal Force (N or FN)




Normal force points from surface to object.
Normal force is always perpendicular to the surface in contact.
(Normal = perpendicular)
If there is no tendency for the object to go into the surface, there is
no normal force.
No contact, no normal force.

Weight and Apparent Weight

Weight is force of gravity of Earth
pulling on the object.


Apparent weight is the
reading on the apparatus.

Apparent weight is the normal force
the scale exerting on the object
Apparent weight is the tension the
spring exerting on the object
Apparent weight does not have to be the
same as the weight.

Draw all the forces acting on the object of consideration.
Ignore all forces the object acting on other objects (reaction

Draw all forces starting from center of the object for simplicity.

pulley. The blocks are released from rest. Find a) the
tension in the rope, and b) the acceleration of the blocks.
