PHYSICS 231 Lecture 8: Forces, forces & examples Remco Zegers Walk-in hour: Monday 9:15-10:15 helproom PHY 231 1 Newton’s Laws First Law: If the net force exerted on an object is zero the object continues in its original state of motion; if it was at rest, it remains at rest. If it was moving with a certain velocity, it will keep on moving with the same velocity. Second Law: The acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force acting on it, and inversely proportional to its mass: F=ma If two objects interact, the force exerted by the first object on the second is equal but opposite in direction to the force exerted by the second object on the first: F12=-F21 PHY 231 2 Forces seen in the previous lecture • Gravity: Force between massive objects • Normal force: Elasticity force from supporting surface n=-FgL FgL=mgcos Fg//=mgsin Fg=mg PHY 231 3 Gravity, mass and weights. Weight=mass times gravitational acceleration Fg(N)=M(kg) g(m/s2) Newton’s law of universal gravitation: Fgravitation=Gm1m2/r2 G=6.67·10-11 Nm2/kg2 For objects on the surface of the earth: •m1=mearth=fixed •r=“radius” of earth=fixed •The earth is not a point object relative to m2 PHY 231 4 Jumping! The pelvis has a mass of 30.0 kg. What is its acceleration and direction of acceleration? PHY 231 5 Tension T The magnitude of the force T acting on the crate, is the same as the tension in the rope. Spring-scale You could measure the tension by inserting a spring-scale... PHY 231 6 question ceiling A block of mass M is hanging from a string. What is the tension in the string? M a) b) c) d) e) T=0 T=Mg with g=9.81 m/s2 T=0 near the ceiling and T=Mg near the block T=M one cannot tell PHY 231 7 Newton’s second law and tension m1 No friction. What is the acceleration of the objects? m2 PHY 231 8 Problem What is the tension in the string and what will be the acceleration of the two masses? PHY 231 9 Friction Friction are the forces acting on an object due to interaction with the surroundings (air-friction, ground-friction etc). Two variants: • Static Friction: as long as an external force (F) trying to make an object move is smaller than fs,max, the static friction fs equals F but is pointing in the opposite direction: no movement! fs,max=sn s=coefficient of static friction • Kinetic Friction: After F has surpassed fs,max, the object starts moving but there is still friction. However, the friction will be less than fs,max! fk=kn k=coefficient of kinetic friction PHY 231 10 PHY 231 11 friction 20 kg pull A person wants to drag a crate of 20 kg over the floor. If he pulls the crate with a force of 98 N, the crate starts to move. What is s? After the crate starts moving, the person continues to pull with the same force. Given k=0.4, what is the acceleration of the crate? PHY 231 12 General strategy • If not given, make a drawing of the problem. • Put all the relevant forces in the drawing, object by object. • Think about the axis • Think about the signs • Decompose the forces in direction parallel to the motion and perpendicular to it. • Write down Newton’s first law for forces in the parallel direction and perpendicular direction. • Solve for the unknowns. • Check whether your answer makes sense. PHY 231 13 What about… A heavy-duty SUV and small car collide. Is the force of the SUV on the small car: a) b) c) d) greater than the force of the small car on the SUV smaller than the force of the small car on the SUV the same as the force of the small car on the SUV It is impossible to say PHY 231 14
