4.1 Contact and field forces
![Page 3: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
4.2 Newton’s First Law (the law of inertia) – an object at rest will
remain at rest, or an object in motion at a constant velocity will continue at a constant velocity,
unless acted upon by a net force.
![Page 4: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Net force – the sum of all the forces acting on an object
![Page 6: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
If the net force is zero . . .
• The object is not moving or . . .
• The object is moving at a constant velocity therefore . . .
• The object is in equilibrium
![Page 7: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A net force changes velocity
![Page 8: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Inertia and mass
![Page 9: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
4.3 Newton’s Second Law
![Page 10: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Some examples
![Page 11: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force
and inversely proportional to its mass.
![Page 12: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The more familiar mathematical form (a new unit)
![Page 13: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Net force is a vector in the same direction as the acceleration
![Page 14: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Note! If an object accelerates then the net force is NOT zero. If
the net force is zero, then the object is moving with a constant
velocity or it is at rest.
![Page 15: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Use free body diagrams to show all of the forces acting on an
object.

Ex. A barge has a mass of 8.0 EE 3 kg. A force of 1.00 EE 4 N pulls on the barge toward the left while a force of 7.5 EE 3 N pulls in the opposite direction. What is the acceleration of the barge?
![Page 17: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Forces are vectors and may have components like any other
vectors.

4.5 Newton’s Third Law (highly misunderstood)
![Page 22: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Newton’s Third Law – when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts a force that is equal in magnitude, but in the opposite direction to
that of the first
![Page 23: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
“This third law is confusing!”
Remember – Newton’s Third Law deals with two forces and two objects,
not two forces on one object.
![Page 24: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Ex. Two skaters with masses of 75 kg and 45 kg respectively, face each other and push away. If the acceleration of the 75 kg skater is 0.73 m/s2, what is the acceleration of the 45 kg skater?
![Page 25: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

The Four (or is it three?) Fundamental Forces
• The (real) strong nuclear force (short range – holds the protons and neutrons of an atom together)
• Electromagnetic forces (10-2 times the strong force) – long range, holds atoms and molecules together
• Weak nuclear force (10-6 times the strong force) – short range, responsible for radioactive decay
• The (really weak) gravitational force (10-43 times the strong force) long range
![Page 27: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
4.7 The gravitational force – more to say about this later, but
for now . . .
![Page 28: AP Physics I.B Newton’s Laws of Motion. 4.1 Contact and field forces](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dfe5503460f94ae632f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The gravitational force is always attractive and never repulsive.

Maximum static friction
• Independent of area (if surfaces are hard and nondeformable)
• Directly proportional to the normal force
• Depends on the surfaces in contact
