4. MELC 2
Infer that when a body
exerts a force on another,
an equal amount of force is
exerted back on it.
5. What is a force?
• A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, stop, or
change direction
• In physics a force is anything that makes an object accelerate
• If an object is stationary, it won’t start moving without a force.
6. Force
• Forces come in pairs
• Forces have a magnitude and a direction
• Force is a vector quantity
5N, north (up)
Magnitude: 5N
Direction: north (up)
7. Force Measurement and Units
• SI unit for force is the Newton
• A Newton is a force that causes a 1kg mass to accelerate
at a rate of 1m/s/s.
• 1 N (Newton) = 1 kg * m/s2
• We use a spring scale to measure force.
8. Forces in the Same Direction
• When forces are applied in the
same direction, they are added to
determine the size of the net force.
9. • When two forces act in opposite directions, you
subtract the smaller force from the larger force to
determine the net force.
• The net force will be in the same direction as the
larger force.
Forces in Different Directions
10. Balanced and Unbalanced Forces
• Forces occur in pairs and they can be either balanced or
unbalanced
11. Balanced forces are
forces that are equal in
magnitude and in
opposite direction so
there will be no motion
in an object.
Unbalanced forces
mean that if an object
initially is at rest is under
an unbalanced force, it
moves in the direction of
the unbalanced force.
12. Balanced Forces:The forces in each
direction are“equal”.
If more than one force is present, it does not
have to cause an acceleration on an object.
If another force “balances” the first out, there
will be no acceleration at all.
Think: If both guys (who weight the same)
pull on a rope in opposite directions, with
an equal amount of force, how much will they move?
13. Balanced Forces
• Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion
• They are equal in size and opposite in direction
• The net force is 0
15. Example:
Gravity pulls down on you…
The ground pushes back up…
THIS KEEPS YOU WHERE YOU ARE!
If these football players push
on each other equally as hard,
will either one move?
Gravity pulls down
Ground pushes up
16. Forces may cancel each other and
produce no movement
=No Acceleration!
More Balanced Forces…
5 N 5 N
17. Forces may cancel each other and
produce no movement
=No Acceleration!
More Balanced Forces…
5 N
5 N
18. • Balanced Forces -
are forces that are
equal in magnitude
and in opposite
direction so there
will be no motion
19. TENSION FORCE - acts in the opposite direction of the
gravitational force.
GRAVITATIONAL FORCE – is
the force of attraction between
all masses in the universe ;
pulls object towards the center
of the Earth.
The NORMAL FORCE
is the force that
surfaces exert to
prevent solid objects
20. The vase stays at rest
because it has a normal
force of 5 units and
gravitational force of 5 units
also. Lets find out what will
be the net force of the vase?
GRESA
Method
Given: Fn (Normal force) - 5 units
Fg (Gravitational force - 5 units
Required: F net (Net force)
Equation: Fnet = Fn + Fg
Solution: Fnet = 5 units + (-5 units)
Answer: 0
22. “Unbalanced”Forces
If the multiple forces
acting at one time are
not balanced out
(equal), then
acceleration can/will
occur on the object!
Kicking the ball causes it to move
quickly in a different direction
If one side of the scale has more mass,
then gravity will accelerate it down!
23. Unbalanced Forces
• An unbalanced force always causes a change in motion
• The net force is greater than 0
• When unbalanced forces act in opposite directions you can find
the net force
– Net force
• Magnitude
–The difference between the two forces
• Direction
–Direction of the largest force
27. Unbalanced Forces
Cause Acceleration
Adding Forces:
5 N
Random Object
5 N
Notice that all the new forces are pointed in the same
direction, and they add together! So, instead of only 5N of
force pushing the object; now there are 10 N of force
pushing!
Multiple forces can combine to move an
object that has too much inertia for one
force alone.The forces“add together”!
All by himself, one person might not be able to push a car.
But with extra friends pushing, it becomes much easier! The
forces add together.
What you just
saw was like
two people
pushing on the
same box.
28. Unbalanced Forces
Cause Acceleration
Subtracting Forces:
5 N
5 N
Object
5 N
Notice that the forces are “unequal” and
pointed in the opposite direction. So they are
“unbalanced” and work against each other – or
one partially cancels the other.
The end result is that the forces on the left
are slowed down by the single force on the right
If forces are not equal and are acting in opposite
directions,a negative acceleration can/will
occur.The forces will subtract from each other!
29. • Unbalanced Forces - if an
object is at rest is under an
unbalanced force, it moves
in the direction of the
unbalanced force
• Object changes its state of
motion (either increase or
decrease in acceleration).
• Friction force is a force that acts
between surfaces that are in
contact with one another.
In the case of the rolling ball, the frictional force acts between
the surface of the ball and the table and slows down the
motion of the ball.
30. One team pulls 5units to
the left and the other team
exert forces of 10 units to
the right. What will be the
net force? To what direction
will it be pulled?
Given: F1 = -5 units
F2 = 10 units
Required: F net (Net force)
Equation: Fnet = F1 + F2
Solution: Fnet = -5 units + 10 units
Answer: 5 units to the right
GRESA Method
Note:
-5 since to the left direction
10 since to the right direction
then: apply the basic rules in
algebra.
31. Review Balanced Forces

33. Combining Forces
• Net Force – The overall force acting on an object after all
forces are combined.
- Forces in the same direction we add them.
- Forces in opposite directions you subtract them.
10N 10N
