What Causes an Acceleration?

 Out of common experience, we know that any change in velocity must be due to

an interaction

between

an object

(

a body

) and something in

its surroundings

.

 An interaction that can cause an acceleration of a body is called a

force

on the body.

. Force can be loosely defined as a push or pull  The relation between a force and the acceleration it causes was first understood by Isaac Newton.   The study of that relationship is called

Newtonian mechanics

.

We shall now focus on its

three

primary laws of motion.

Force in Various Forms

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/3

Newton’s First Law

Newton’s First Law

: “If no force acts on a body, then the body’s velocity cannot change, that is the body cannot accelerate.”  In other words, if the body is at rest, it stays at rest. If the body is moving, it will continue to move with the same velocity (same magnitude and same direction).

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/4

Mass, Motion & Force

 

Experimental Observations

: An object acted on by a net force accelerates in the same direction as the net force.

 Some objects accelerate slower or faster than others when subjected to the same force 

inertial mass

.

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/5

Force

  A force can cause the acceleration of a body.

As the standard body, we shall use the standard kilogram. It is assigned, exactly and by definition, a mass of

1 kg

.

  We put the standard body on a horizontal frictionless surface and pull the body to the right, so that it eventually experiences an acceleration of

1 m/s 2

.

We can now declare, as a matter of definition, that the force we are exerting on the standard body has a magnitude of

1 newton

(

1 N

).

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/6

Force

 Forces are vector quantities. They have magnitudes and directions.

 

Principle of Superposition for Forces

A single force with the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on a body has the same effect as all the individual forces acting together.

:

Newton’s First Law

“If no

net

: (proper statement) force acts on a body (

F

net = 0) , then the body’s velocity cannot change, that is the body cannot accelerate.”

Mass

   Mass is a scalar quantity.

Mass is an intrinsic characteristic of a body.

The mass of a body is the characteristic that

relates

on the body to the resulting acceleration.

a force  A

physical sensation

of a mass can only be obtained when we attempt to accelerate the body.

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/10

Newton’s Second Law

Newton’s Second Law

: “The net force on a body is equal to the product of the body’s mass and its acceleration.

If it is moving, it continues to move at constant velocity.

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/11

Newton’s Second Law

 The vector equation

F

is equivalent to three component equation, one written for each axis of an

xyz

coordinate system:

.

 The acceleration component along a given axis is caused

only

by the sum of the force components along that

same axis

, and not by force components along any other axis.

Free-Body Diagram

 The most important step in solving problems involving Newton’s Laws is to draw the free-body diagram.

 Only the forces acting on the object of interest should be included in a free-body diagram.

Some Particular Forces

 

Friction

→ The frictional force or simply friction is a force surface.

that resists the motion when we slide or attempt to slide a body over a Friction is directed along the surface, opposite the direction of the intended motion.

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/20

Some Particular Forces

 

Tension

When a cord (or a rope, cable, or other such object) is attached to a body and tensed, the cord pulls on the body with a force

T

directed away from the body.

The force is often called a tension force. The tension in the cord is the magnitude →

T

of the force on the body.

• •

A cord is considered as massless and unstretchable A pulley is considered as massless and frictionless Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/21

Beware of High-Energy Tension

Erwin Sitompul University Physics: Mechanics 7/22

Various Forms of Energy

• •

Energy can convert from one form to the other.

Energy in higher level (more concentrated) tends to convert to lower (less concentrated) condition.
