Things to Remember from Last Year Slide 3 / 156 Newton's Laws of Motion

  • 1. An object maintains its velocity (both speed and

direction) unless acted upon by a nonzero net force.

  • 2. Newton’s second law is the relation between

acceleration and force.

  • 3. Whenever one object exerts a force on a second
  • bject, the second object exerts an equal force in

the opposite direction on the first object.

Slide 31 / 156

We get the magnitude of the resultant from the Pythagorean Theorem. c2 = a2 + b2 Fnet

2 = (50N)2 + (40N)2

= 2500N2 + 1600N2 = 4100N2 Fnet = (4100N2)1/2 = 64 N

Adding Orthogonal Forces Slide 32 / 156 Adding Orthogonal Forces

We get the direction of the net Force from the inverse tangent. tan(θ) = opp / adj tan(θ) = (40N) / (50N) tan(θ) = 4/5 tan(θ) = 0.8 θ = tan-1(0.80) = 39o Fnet = 64 N at 39o

Slide 33 / 156 Decomposing Forces into Orthogonal Components

Let's decompose a 120 N force at 34o into its x and y components. F θ

Slide 34 / 156 Decomposing Forces into Orthogonal Components

We have Fnet, which is the hypotenuse, so let's first find the adjacent side by using cosθ = adj / hyp cosθ = Fx / Fnet Fx = Fnet cosθ = 120N cos34o = 100 N F Fx θ

Slide 35 / 156 Decomposing Forces into Orthogonal Components

Now let's find the opposite side by using sinθ = adj / hyp sinθ = Fy / Fnet Fy = Fnet sinθ = 120N sin34o = 67 N Fx F Fy θ

Slide 36 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

Now that we know how to add orthogonal forces. And we know now to break forces into orthogonal components, so we can make any force into two

We combine those two steps to add any number of forces together at any different angles.

Slide 37 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

Let's add together these three forces: F1 = 8.0 N at 50o F2 = 6.5 N at 75o F3 = 8.4 N at 30o First, we will do it graphically, to show the principle for how we will do it analytically. Then, we will do it analytically, which is easy once you see why it works that way.

Slide 38 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

Slide 42 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

F1 = 4.0 N at 50o F2 = 6.5 N at 75o F3 = 8.4 N at 30o Then, we remove the original vectors and note that the sum of the components is the same as the sum of the vectors. F1x F2x F3x F1y F2y F3y F

Slide 43 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

F1 = 4.0 N at 50o F2 = 6.5 N at 75o F3 = 8.4 N at 30o This is the key result: The sum of the x- components of the vectors equals the x- component of the Resultant. As it is for the y- components. F1x F2x F3x F1y F2y F3y F Fy Fx

Slide 44 / 156 Adding non-Orthogonal Forces

This explains how we will add vectors analytically.

  • 1. Write the magnitude and direction (from 0 to 360 degrees)

  • 3. Add the x components to find the x component of the

Resultant.

Slide 54 / 156 Force and friction acting on an object

Previously, we solved problems with multiple forces, but they were either parallel or perpendicular. For instance, draw the free body diagram of the case where a box is being pulled along a surface, with friction, at constant speed.

Slide 55 / 156

FN mg FAPP f Now find the acceleration given that the applied force is 20 N, the box has a mass of 3.0kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20.

Force and friction acting on an object Slide 57 / 156 Forces at angles acting on an object

Now we will solve problems where the forces act at an angle so that it is not parallel or perpendicular with one another. First we do a free body diagram, just as we did previously.

Slide 58 / 156

FN mg FAPP f

Forces at angles acting on an object

The next, critical, step is to choose axes. Previously, we always used vertical and horizontal axes, since

  • ne axis lined up with

the forces...and the acceleration. Now, we must choose axes so that all the acceleration is along one axis, and there is no acceleration along the other. You always have to ask, "In which direction could this object accelerate?" Then make one axis along that direction, and the

  • ther perpendicular to that.

What's the answer in this case?

This time vertical and horizontal axes still work...since we assume the box will slide along the surface. However, if this assumption is wrong, we will get answers that do not make sense, and we will have to reconsider our choice.

Slide 64 / 156 Normal Force and Friction

Friction was reduced because the Normal Force was reduced; the box's weight, mg, was supported by the y- component of the force plus the Normal Force...so the Normal Force was lowered...lowering friction.

Slide 71 / 156 Normal Force and Weight

FN mg Previously we dealt mostly with horizontal (or, rarely, vertical surfaces). In that case FN, and mg were always along the same axis. Now we will look at the more general case.

Slide 73 / 156 Inclined Plane

FN mg FN is ALWAYS perpendicular to the surface. mg is ALWAYS directed downward. But now, they are neither parallel or perpendicular to one another.

Slide 74 / 156 Choosing Axes

FN mg Previously, we used vertical and horizontal

  • axes. That worked

because problems always resulted in an acceleration that was along one of those axes. We must choose axes along which all the acceleration is along

In this case, the block can only accelerate along the surface of the plane. Even if there is no acceleration in a problem, this is the ONLY POSSIBLE direction of acceleration. So we rotate our x-y axes to line up with the surface of the plane.

Slide 76 / 156

By the way, here's one way to see that θ is the both the angle of incline and the angle between mg and the new y-axis.

Inclined Plane Problems

y-axis α

Let's name the angle of the inclined plane θ and the angle between mg and the x-axis θ' and show that θ = θ' Since the angles in a triangle add to 180o, and the bottom left angle is 90o, that means: α + θ = 90o θ θ'

Slide 77 / 156

Now look at the angles in the upper left corner of the triangle.

Inclined Plane Problems

y-axis α

The surface of the inclined plane forms an angle of 180o, so 90o + θ' + α = 180o θ' + α = 90o But we already showed that α + θ = 90o θ' + α = 90o = α + θ θ' = θ θ θ'

Slide 94 / 156 Static Equilibrium

There is a whole field of problems called "Statics" that has to do with cases where no acceleration occurs, objects remain at rest. Anytime we construct something (bridges, buildings, houses, etc.) we want them to remain stationary, not accelerate. So this is a very important field. The two types of static equilibrium are with respect to linear and rotational acceleration, a balancing of force and of torque (forces that cause objects to rotate). We'll look at them in that order.

Slide 95 / 156

Previously, we did problems where a rope supporting an object exerted a vertical force straight upward, along the same axis as the force mg was pulling it down. That led to the simple case that if a = 0, then FT = mg

Tension Force

25 A uniform rope of weight 20 N hangs from a hook as shown above. A box of mass 60 kg is suspended from the rope. What is the tension in the rope? A 20 N throughout the rope B 120 N throughout the rope C 200 N throughout the rope D 600 N throughout the rope E It varies from 600 N at the bottom of the rope to 620 N at the top.

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Slide 97 / 156

But it is possible for two (or more) ropes to support an object (a = 0) by exerting forces at angles. In that case: The vertical components of the force exerted by each rope must add up to mg. And the horizontal components must add to zero.

Tension Force

mg T1 T2

Slide 98 / 156

So we need to break the forces into components that align with our axes.

Tension Force

mg T1 T2

Slide 99 / 156

One result can be seen just from this diagram. In order for the forces along the x-axis to cancel out, the more vertical Tension must be much larger than the Tension which is at a greater angle to the vertical. In problems with two supporting ropes or wires, the more vertical has a greater tension.

Tension Force

Slide 100 / 156

Let's calculate the tension in two ropes if T1 is at an angle of 50o from the vertical and T2 is at an angle of 20o from the vertical and they are supporting a 8.0 kg mass. Note, that in this case the horizontal component is given by Tsinθ, where before it was given by Tcosθ. To know which function to use you MUST draw the diagram and find the sides opposite and adjacent to the given angle.

Slide 106 / 156 Torque and Rotational Equilibrium

Forces causes objects to linearly accelerate. Torque causes objects to rotationally accelerate. Rotational dynamics is a major topic of AP Physics C:

  • Mechanics. It isn't particularly difficult, but for AP B, we
  • nly need to understand the static case, where all the

torques cancel and add to zero. First we need to know what torque is.

Slide 107 / 156 Torque and Rotational Equilibrium

Until now we've treated objects as points, we haven't been concerned with their shape or extension in space. We have assumed that any applied force acts through the center of the object and it is free to accelerate. That does not result in rotation, just linear acceleration. But if the force acts on an object so that it causes the

  • bject to rotate around its center of mass...or around a

pivot point, that force has exerted a torque on the object.

Slide 108 / 156 Torque and Rotational Equilibrium

A good example is opening a door, making a door rotate. The door does not accelerate in a straight line, it rotates around its hinges. Think of the best direction and location to push on a heavy door to get it to rotate and you'll have a good sense of how torque works. Which force (blue arrow) placed at which location would create the most rotational acceleration of the green door about the black hinge?

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Slide 109 / 156 Torque and Rotational Equilibrium

The maximum torque is obtained from: · The largest force · At the greatest distance from the pivot · At an angle to the line to the pivot that is closest to perpendicular Mathematically, this becomes: τ = Frsinθ τ (tau) is the symbol for torque; F is the applied force r is the distance from the pivot θ is the angle of the force to a line to the pivot

Slide 110 / 156 Torque and Rotational Equilibrium

τ = Frsinθ When r decreases, so does the torque for a given

  • force. When r = 0, τ = 0.

When θ differs from 90o, the torque decreases. When θ = 0o or 180o, τ = 0.

r θ F

Slide 111 / 156 Two Physical Interpretations of Torque

τ = r(Fsinθ) The torque due to F acting at angle θ can be replaced by a smaller perpendicular force Fsinθ acting at r.

r θ F τ = F(rsinθ) The torque due to F acting at angle θ can be replaced by F acting at a smaller distance rsinθ. r θ F r θ Fsinθ rsinθ F rsinθ

These are all equivalent.

Slide 112 / 156 Rotational Equilibrium

When the sum of the torques on an object is zero, the

  • bject is in rotational equilibrium.

Define counter clockwise (CCW) as the positive direction for rotation and clockwise (CW) as the negative. For instance, what perpendicular force, F, must be applied at a distance of 7.0 m for the pivot to exactly

  • ffset a 20N force acting at a distance of 4.0m from the

pivot of a door at an angle of 30o?

Slide 147 / 156 Fluid Resistance

If we do not take into account air resistance then the

  • bject will fall with a constant acceleration.

If air resistance however is taken into account then the objects acceleration will eventually be cancelled

  • ut by the drag force.

Since the acceleration will essentially become zero, at some point in time your velocity will be constant.
