Forces
Übersicht
Push, pull, stretch, squeeze, turn, stop: forces are behind every change in how an object moves or what shape it is. Understanding forces is the gateway to the whole of mechanics, and it is where Newton's famous ideas about motion begin.
In this lesson you will see how a force can change an object's size and shape, read a load-extension graph and find a spring constant, add forces along a line to get the resultant, and use \(F=ma\) to link force, mass and acceleration. You will also meet the idea that a force at right angles to motion makes an object travel in a circle.
Ziele
- Know that forces may produce changes in the size and shape of an object
- Sketch, plot and interpret load-extension graphs for an elastic solid and describe the associated experimental procedures
- Determine the resultant of two or more forces acting along the same straight line
- Know that an object either remains at rest or continues in a straight line at constant speed unless acted on by a resultant force
- State that a resultant force may change the velocity of an object by changing its direction of motion or its speed
- [Supplement] Define the spring constant as force per unit extension; recall and use the equation F k = x
- [Supplement] Define and use the term ‘limit of proportionality’ for a load-extension graph and identify this point on the graph (an understanding of the elastic limit is not required)
- [Supplement] Recall and use the equation F = ma and know that the force and the acceleration are in the same direction
- [Supplement] Describe, qualitatively, motion in a circular path due to a force perpendicular to the motion as: (a) speed increases if force increases, with mass and radius constant (b) radius decreases if force increases, with mass and speed constant (c) an increased mass requires an increased force to keep speed and radius constant mv 2 ( F = is not required) r

Hooke’s Law: Stress and Strain Revisited
Newton’s first law implies that an object oscillating back and forth is experiencing forces. Without force, the object would move in a straight line at a constant speed rather than oscillate. Consider, for example, plucking a plastic ruler to the left as shown in Figure 16.2 . The deformation of the

Newton’s First Law of Motion: Inertia
Experience suggests that an object at rest will remain at rest if left alone, and that an object in motion tends to slow down and stop unless some effort is made to keep it moving. What Newton’s first law of motion states, however, is the following: A body at rest remains at rest, or, if in motion,
