DYNAMICS AND
NEWTON’S LAW OF
MOTION
INTRODUCTION
Objects are in motion everywhere we

look. Everything involves motion. An
understanding of motion is also key to
understanding other concepts in physics.
For example, an understanding of
acceleration is crucial to the study of
force.
Kinematics only describes the way objects move—their
velocity and their acceleration. Dynamics considers the forces
that affect the motion of moving objects and systems. Newton's
Dynamics is the study of the forces that cause objects
and systems to move.

force – that is, a push or a
pull.

• Intuitive definition of force – that is, a push or a pull.
• In general, is the agency of change. In mechanics, it is that which

changes the velocity of an object. Force is a vector quantity, having
magnitude and direction.

FORCE
• The Net External force acting on an object causes the object
to accelerate in the direction of that force. The acceleration is
proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the
mass of the object.

force. One Newton is that

Inertia is the tendency of a
body at rest to remain at rest,
and of a body in motion to
continue moving with
unchanged velocity.
The Mass of an object is a

measure of the inertia of the
object.
Types of
Forces
–➢ The Weight of an object (Fw) is
the gravitational force acting
downward on the object. On
Earth, it is the gravitational force
exerted on the object by this
planet. Its units are Newton (SI)
and pounds (English Unit)
Mass and weight are often used interchangeably in
everyday language. However, in science, these terms
are distinctly different from each other.

Mass is a measure how much matter is in an object. The
typical measure of mass is the kilogram (or “slug” in English
units).

Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an
object. Weight is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by the acceleration
due to gravity (g). Like any other force, weight is measured in terms of
Newtons (or pounds in English units).

Types of

The Normal force (FN) on an
object that is being supported by
a surface is the component of the
supporting force that is
perpendicular to the surface.
Types of
Forces
The Normal force (F ) on an
N
object that is being supported by

a surface is the component of the
supporting force that is
perpendicular to the surface.
Types of
Forces
The Friction force (Ff) is a tangential
force acting on an object that opposes the
sliding of that object on an adjacent
surface with which it is in contact. The
friction force is parallel to the surface and
opposite to the direction of motion or of
impending motion. Only when the applied
force exceeds the maximum static friction
force will an object begin to slide.
Types of
Forces
The Tensile force (FT) acting on
a string or chain or tendon is the
applied force tending to stretch it.
The magnitude of the tensile
force is the tension.
Free-Body
Diagram
Free-body diagram is a technique used to illustrate
all the forces acting on a body or object. The body is
represented by a single isolated point (or free body),
and only those forces acting on the body from the
outside (external forces) are shown. These forces are
the only ones shown because only external forces
acting on the body affects its motion.
Newton’
s Laws of
Motion
“an object at rest will remain at rest and
an object in motion will remain in motion
unless act upon by a force”.
Newton’ Newton’s first law is also called the Law

of Inertia. Inertia is the resistance to
s Laws of changes in velocity. Inertia is a property
of matter. It is proportional to the mass
Motion of the object. An object with larger mass
has a larger inertia than a less massive

object.
Newton’ “the acceleration of an object
proportional to the net force o
s Laws of the object and inversely
proportional to the mass of the
Motion object”.
Newton’s Second Law of Motion

“for every action,
Newton’ there is an equal and
s Laws of opposite reaction”.
Motion Matter interacts with matter –
forces come (or acts) in pairs.
For each force exerted on one

body, there is an equal, but
oppositely directed, force on
some other body interacting
with it. This is often called Law
