What is the branch of classical Dynamics
mechanics concerned with the study
of forces and their effects on motion
called?
Which of the following is the BEST a) simply a push or a pull
description of a force? b) an action exerted on an object which may
change the object's state of rest or motion
c) something only found in sci-fi movies
d) A and B
Answer A and B
What is the unit for force? Newtons
What is the specific, immediate, Agent of Force
identifiable cause of a force called?
When a baseball player hits a home The bat
run, what is the agent of the force
applied to the ball?
, What makes a field force different In field forces the agent and receiver of the force
from a contact force when it comes do not have to touch, but in contact forces the
to agents and receivers of forces? agent and receiver of the force must touch
Draw a Free Body Diagram of a a) 2
picture resting on a shelf. Then b) 1
answer the following questions c) 3
about your free body diagram:
a. How many forces are in your
diagram?1. 1 2. 2 3. 3 4. 4
b. In which direction does the shelf
apply a force on the picture?1.
Upward2. Downward3. There is not
enough information to determine the
direction 4. The table does not apply
a force to the laptop
c. How does the magnitude of the
weight of the picture compare to the
magnitude of the normal force
acting on the picture? 1. The weight
of the picture is larger than the
normal force acting on the picture 2.
The normal force acting on the
picture is larger than the weight of
the picture 3. Both the normal force
and the weight of the picture have
the same magnitude 4. There is not
enough information to compare the
magnitude of these forces.
