Force and Motion Facts

Force and motion are intimately related concepts. Force


causes motion to accelerate, decelerate, change direction,
or stop entirely.
WHAT IS FORCE?
● A force is a push or pull that an object experiences as a result
of interacting with another object. Every time two things
interact, a force is exerted on each of them. However, when the
interaction stops, the force is no longer felt by the two objects.
Only through interaction do forces actually exist.
● Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's
resting or moving condition. It has a size and a movement. The
direction of the force is referred to as the force's direction, and
the application of force is the place at which the force is
applied.
KIDSKONNECT.COM
Force and Motion Facts
TYPES OF FORCES
Contact Forces
Applied forces
● Any force that is exerted on an object, whether
by a person or another object, is referred to as
an applied force.
Normal forces
● The support force that is applied to an object
when it comes into touch with another stable
object is known as the normal force.
Frictional forces
● Friction is created as an object moves across a surface. The
characteristics of the two interacting surfaces determine friction.
Friction forces can be classified as either sliding or static.
Spring forces
● Spring force is produced when a spring is crushed or stretched.
A spring is an elastic metal structure that, when pulled or
pressed, returns to its initial shape.
Air Resistance force
● When an object moves through the air, air resistance acts as a
force. When a body is moving through the air, this force works in
the opposite direction. A frictional force is applied to the moving
body by air resistance. Air resistance causes a body's speed to
slow down as it moves.
Tension force
● Tension force is a force that is
communicated through a string,
rope, cable, or wire when the item
at the other end pulls it firmly. The
wire or rope is subject to this force
along its entire length.
KIDSKONNECT.COM
Force and Motion Facts
Non-contact or Non Action at a Distance Forces
Gravitational force
● The force that pulls something toward a tremendously
enormous object like the earth, moon, or other body is known as
gravity. By definition, this is the object's weight. Every object on
Earth is subject to gravity, which pulls objects downward and
toward the Earth's center.
Magnetic force
● Magnetism is the term used to describe
the force that draws an object to a
magnet. North and south poles are found
on every magnet. The attraction or
repulsion that develops between
electrically charged particles as a result of
their motion is this force.
Electrical force
● The nucleus and electrons are drawn to one another by an
electric force. An electric field is a term used to describe the
area around a charge that is either positive or negative.
WHAT IS MOTION?
● Motion is the change in an
object's position with respect to
a system or reference point
through time.
● It is a basic idea in physics and may be explained in terms of a
number of different quantities, including distance, displacement,
speed, velocity, and acceleration.
● There are types of motion that can be used to characterize
motion, this includes translational, rotational, circular, and
oscillatory motion.
KIDSKONNECT.COM
Force and Motion Facts
● In contrast to rotational motion, which describes how an object
moves around an axis or center of rotation, translational motion
describes how an object moves in a straight path.
● On the other hand, oscillatory motion describes a consistent
back-and-forth movement of an object; circular motion
describes the movement of an object in a circular direction.
NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION

Law of Inertia
● Inertia is the ability of large entities to resist changes in their
state of motion. According to Newton's first law of motion, an
external force must be applied in order for an object to begin
moving, stop moving, or change direction.
● Galileo Galilei first proposed the law of inertia for Earth's
horizontal motion, and René Descartes later generalized it.
Although the fundamental premise and starting point of classical
mechanics is the notion of inertia, the untrained eye finds it to
be less than immediately clear.

Law of Mass and Acceleration


● The effects of an external force on a large body are described
by Newton's second law of motion. According to the second law
of motion, a body's force is equivalent to the product of its mass
and acceleration.
● One of the most significant laws in all of physics is Newton's
second law. F = ma, where F (force) and a (acceleration) are
both vector values, can be used to represent a body whose
mass m is constant.
● A body is accelerated according to the equation if there is a net
force acting on it. On the other hand, if a body is not propelled,
no net force is exerted on it.
KIDSKONNECT.COM
Force and Motion Facts
Law of Action and Reaction
● According to Newton's third law, when two bodies come into
contact, they exert forces on one another that are equal in size
and directed in the opposite direction.
● This law applies to bodies in uniform or rapid motion and is
crucial for addressing problems of static equilibrium, where all
forces are in balance.
RELATION OF FORCE AND MOTION
● In nature, force and motion are closely connected. We can state
that the source of motion is force. If something is moving, we
can infer that a force is acting on it or that a force previously
acted on it to cause the motion.
● Forces are necessary to alter an object's motion, and the
strength and direction of the applied force affect the object's
subsequent acceleration.
● Newton's laws of motion, which lay the groundwork for
understanding how objects behave when they are moving,
define the link between motion and force.
● An object may accelerate when a force is applied, which
indicates that the object's speed or direction of motion changes.
The object accelerates more quickly the more force is applied.
● On the other hand, if there is no external force pushing against
an object, it will continue to move in that direction.
● According to Newton's second law of motion, which states that
an object's acceleration is directly proportional to the force
exerted and inversely proportional to its mass, the link between
force and motion can be quantitatively stated.
● A formula for this is F = ma, where F is the force, m is the
object's mass, and an is the acceleration.

The Law of Inertia


Newton’s first law of motion states that an object at rest will stay
at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on
by a net external force. This is the Law of Inertia. Let’s apply this
law by solving these problems.

PROBLEM 1:
Emily is playing with a toy car on a flat table. She pushes the car with a certain force and then
lets it go. Initially, the car moves with a constant velocity of 0.5 m/s. Suddenly, a book falls off
the table and lands directly in front of the car. How will the car's motion be affected by the
book's presence? Will it stop or change direction?

The Law of Inertia
ANSWER KEY

PROBLEM 1:
Emily is playing with a toy car on a flat table. She pushes the car with a certain force and then lets it go. Initially,
the car moves with a constant velocity of 0.5 m/s. Suddenly, a book falls off the table and lands directly in front
of the car. How will the car's motion be affected by the book's presence? Will it stop or change direction?
Solution:
According to the law of inertia, the car will continue moving in a straight line with a constant
velocity unless acted upon by an external force. In this case, the book falling in front of the
car will exert a force on it, causing it to stop or change its motion.
If the book falls directly in front of the car, it will collide with the book. The force of the
collision will depend on the mass and speed of the car, as well as the mass of the book.
Assuming the car has a higher mass than the book, it will exert a force on the book, pushing it
away. However, the car's motion will be affected by this collision.

PROBLEM 2:
A ball is placed on a flat table. When a person gives it a quick push, the ball rolls and eventually comes to a stop.
Explain this phenomenon using the law of inertia.
Solution:
the ball initially remains at rest due to inertia. The external force applied by the person
overcomes this inertia and sets the ball in motion. However, the opposing forces of friction
eventually bring the ball to a stop, balancing out the applied force and the ball's inertia.

PROBLEM 3:
A book is placed on a table. When the tablecloth is pulled quickly, the cloth is able to be removed
without moving the book. Explain this phenomenon using the law of inertia.
Solution:
Due to the high velocity of the pull, the cloth experiences rapid acceleration.
Now, because of the law of inertia, the book tends to resist any change in its state of
motion. The book has a certain amount of inertia, which is the tendency to maintain
its current state of rest. As the cloth is pulled quickly, it encounters a smaller amount
of friction with the book's surface compared to the force applied to the cloth.
