NEWTON’S LAW OF

MOTION AND
APPLICATION
Isaac Newton (a 17th century scientist) put forth a variety of laws that
explain why objects move (or don't move) as they do.
“ The acceleration of an object as produced
by a net force is directly proportional to
the magnitude of the net force, in the
same direction as the net force, and
inversely proportional to the mass of the
object.

2 nd
Law of Motion
The acceleration of an object depends
directly upon the net force acting upon
the object, and inversely upon the
mass of the object. As the force acting
upon an object is increased, the
acceleration of the object is increased.
As the mass of an object is increased,
the acceleration of the object is
decreased.
 

• The acceleration is directly proportional to the net force; the


net force equals mass times acceleration; the acceleration in
the same direction as the net force; an acceleration is
produced by a net force.

For every action, there is an equal and
opposite reaction.

EXAMPLES OF INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

“When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second one exerts a force on the first that is equal
in magnitude and opposite in direction.”
IDENTIFYING INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

• Forces always come in pairs - known as "action-reaction force


pairs."
• Identifying and describing action-reaction force pairs is a simple
matter of identifying the two interacting objects and making two
statements describing who is pushing on whom and in what direction.
IDENTIFYING INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

• Baseball pushes glove leftwards.

• The glove pushes the baseball


rightward.
IDENTIFYING INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

• Bowling ball pushes pin


leftwards.
• Pin pushes bowling ball
rightward.
IDENTIFYING INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

• Enclosed air particles push


balloon wall outwards.
• Balloon wall pushes enclosed
air particles inwards.
IDENTIFYING INTERACTION FORCE PAIRS

• For example, consider the interaction between a baseball bat and a


baseball.

The baseball forces the bat to the left; the bat forces
the ball to the right. Together, these two forces exerted
upon two different objects form the action-reaction
force pair. Note that in the description of the two
forces, the nouns in the sentence describing the forces
simply switch places.
