Newton's law of motion



Newton’s second law ( law of inertia )
Every body remains in a state of rest or uniform
velocity unless acted on by a resultant / net /
unbalanced force.
i.e. F = 0  Dv = 0
Inertia is the tendency of a body to maintain its state
of rest or of constant velocity.
Mass is a measure of inertia. A large mass requires
a large force to produce a particular acceleration.

Newton’s second law ( law of dynamics )
The rate of change of momentum of a particle is
directly proportional to the resultant force acting on it.
i.e.
F ∝ d(mv)/dt or F = k d(mv)/dt
If the mass is constant, F = kmd(v)/dt = k ma
i.e. The acceleration of an object is directly
proportional to the unbalanced force acting on it.
1 N is defined as the force which gives a mass of 1 kg
an acceleration of 1 ms-2 .
∴ k = 1 and F = ma
For F = 0  a = 0 if m ≠ 0  Dv = 0  v is constant.
i.e.
First law is a special case of second law.

Sand drops vertically with 2 kgs-1 on to a conveyor belt
moving horizontally with 0.1 ms-1.
Calculate the external force required to keep belt
moving with 0.1 ms-1.

A jet of water emerges from a hose of cross-section
area 5 x 10-3 m2 with a speed of 0.3 ms-1 and strikes a
wall at right angles.
Calculate the force exerted on the water by the wall
assuming the water in brought to rest and does not
rebound. (Density of water = 1000 kgm-3)

In 1 second:
 Volume of water striking the wall
= 5 x 10-3 x 0.3 = 0.0015 m3
 Mass of water striking the wall
= 1000 x 0.0015 = 1.5 kg (density = mass / volume)
 The force exerted on the water
= rate of change of momentum of the water
 = (mv – mu) / t = (0 – 1.5 x 0.3) = -0.45 N
 Negative sign means the force is opposite in direction to
the speed of water hitting the wall.

The mass m of an object is a measure of its
inertia.
Inertia is the resistance of an object to change
its state of rest or uniform motion.
An object with the greater mass is more difficult
to start or stop moving.

 Weight





The weight W of an object is the gravitational
force acting on it towards the centre of the earth.
Weight is a force and W = mg.
The weight of a body is proportional to its mass.
Thus, we can find the mass of a body m by
comparing its weight with that of a standard
masse m0 on a beam balance (天秤).
In the same place, W = mg and W0 = m0g.
If the beam balance is in equilibrium, W = W0 ⇒
m = m0.

Newton’s third law ( Action and Reaction )
If body A exerts a force on body B, then B will
exert an equal and opposite force on A.
i.e. FAB = FBA
Forces never occur alone but always in pairs.
Action and reaction act on different bodies.
