Classifying Forces
 Internal Force: acts within the object or system
whose motion is being investigated
 action / reaction forces both act on different parts of the
system


tensile-internal pulling forces when the structure is under
tension
compressive- internal pushing (squeezing) forces act on the
ends of an internal structure
 do not accelerate the body
 Orientate segments, maintain structural integrity
Internal Forces
 Examples
 Contraction of muscles
 Do not accelerate the body
Classifying Forces
 External Force: acts on object as a result of
interaction with the environment surrounding it
 non-contact - occur even if objects are not touching
each other

gravity, magnetic
 contact - occur between objects in contact
 fluid (air & water resistance)
 reaction forces with another body (ground, implement)


vertical (normal) reaction force
 acts perpendicular to bodies in contact
shear reaction force
 acts parallel to surfaces in contact (friction)
F = ma
 Force may also be defined as the product of a body's
mass and the acceleration of that body resulting from
the application of the force.
 Units of force are units of mass multiplied by units of
acceleration.
Units of Force
 Metric system (systeme internationale -SI)
 Newton (N)

the amount of force necessary to accelerate a mass of 1 kg
at 1 m/s2
 English system
 pound (lb)


the amount of force necessary to accelerate a mass of 1
slug at 1 ft/s2
equal to 4.45 N
Weight (external force)
 Weight - the amount of gravitational force exerted
on a body. wt=mag.
 Since weight is a force, units of weight are units of
force - either N or lb.
 As the mass of a body increases, its weight increases
proportionally.
Weight
 The factor of proportionality is the acceleration of
gravity, which is
-9.81m/s2 or - 32 ft/s2.
 The negative sign indicates that the acceleration of
gravity is directed downward or toward the center of
the earth.
Weight
 On the moon or another planet with a different
gravitational acceleration, a body's weight would be
different, although its mass would remain the same.
 Space station example
Weight
 Because weight is a force, it is also characterized by
magnitude, direction, and point of application.
 The direction in which weight acts is always toward
the center of the earth.
Center of Weight (Gravity)
 The point at which weight is assumed to act on a body
is the body's center of gravity.
Friction (external force)
 Component of a contact force that acts parallel to
the surface in contact
 acts opposite to motion or motion tendency
 reflects interaction between molecules in contact
 reflects force “squeezing” surfaces together
 acts at the area of contact between two surfaces
Friction
 Static friction: surfaces not moving relative to each other
 Maximum static friction: maximum amount of friction that
can be generated between two static surfaces
 Dynamic friction: surfaces move relative to each other
 constant magnitude friction during motion

always less than maximum static friction
Friction is FUN
F =  N
Friction depends on
 Nature of materials in contact ()
 Force squeezing bodies together
(N)

Known as the normal contact
(reaction) force
Coefficient of Friction ()
Nature of materials in contact
 Coefficient
of friction ()
 value
serves as an index of the
interaction between two surfaces in
contact.
F

N
Factors Affecting Friction
 The greater the coefficient of friction, the greater the
friction
 The greater the normal contact force, the greater the
friction
Reaction Force
 Normal reaction force (NRF)
 AKA - normal contact force
 force acting perpendicular to two surfaces in contact.
 magnitude intentionally altered to increase or decrease the
amount of friction present in a particular situation

Friction and Surface Area
 Friction force is proportional to the normal contact
force
 Friction is not affected by the size of the surface area in
contact
 normal contact force distributed over the area in contact
 Friction is affected by the nature of the materials in
contact
Friction and Surface Area
 With dry friction, the amount of surface area in
contact does not impact the amount of friction.

Coefficient of Friction
 Hot, soft, rough surfaces have higher coefficients of
friction
 Tires, concrete, etc
 Cold, hard, smooth surfaces have lower coefficients of
friction
 Ice, marble, etc

the object (body)
 account for magnitude and direction
 e.g., Add force of 100N and 200N

 separate algebraic summation of horizontal and
negative forces


Pythagorean theorem to solve resultant magnitude
Inverse tangent to solve direction (angle)
Horizontal forces:
20N – 30N = -10N
Vertical forces:
-500N + 550N = 50N
Resultant force:
a2 + b 2 = c 2
(-10N)2 + (50N)2 = c2
(100N2) + (2500N2) = c2
2600N2 = c2
C = 51N
