Today’s Lesson:

Combining Forces

  1. Net Force is the combination of all forces acting upon a body.

    • When forces act together in the same direction, they are added.

    • When forces act in opposite direction, the are subtracted.

  2. Vectors are used as a way to identify the direction and magnitude (strength) of the net force.

    • example

      • use vectors to determine the net force on a car with an applied force of 1500 N acting to the right moving it forward and a friction force of 2000 N acting to the left.

  3. Also, assign forces a sign (+/-) based on their direction (just like a coordinate system)

    • +for right and up

    • - for left and down

    • Example

      • use vectors to determine the net force on a model rocket with an applied force of 1000 N acting upward and a friction force of 250 N acting downward.

Study Notes - posted for anyone to check their work.

Forces: a push or a pull

Two main kinds:

  1. non-contact forces - force is exerted across a distance without any contact

    • magnetism - force between two bodies made of certain metals.

    • gravity - force of attraction between two bodies that have mass

    • (static) electric forces - forces created by electric charges

  2. Contact forces - force of one body in contact with another.

    • applied - force of one body pushing or pulling on another

    • elastic - force of elastic (spring) materials being stretched or compressed (squished)

    • Normal - force of a surface pushing back against an applied force exerted on it.

    • Friction - a contact force that opposes motion

      • contact - force between bodies sliding across one another

      • wind resistance - force of air molecules hitting a moving body

      • water resistance - force of water molecules hitting a moving body

Diagramming forces

Demonstrate - forces acting on a car driving down the road
