Section 2 What Is a Force?
Combined Effect of Forces
 The net force is the combination of all
the forces acting on an object.
 When forces act in the same direction,
you add the forces to determine the net
force.
 When two forces act in opposite
directions, you subtract the smaller
force from the larger force to determine
the net force.

Friction Force
Friction is a force opposing motion.
Unit of Friction force is Newton (N).
Factors affecting friction are the following :
a. weight of the object
b. type of surface
Equation of Friction
Friction force (f) = u Fn
f – friction force in newtons (N)
u – coefficient of friction (type of
surface)
Fn – normal force (force perpendicular
to the surface)
Chapter 12
Matter in Motion
Types of Friction
1. Static friction- friction present between
surfaces that opposes sliding
2. Sliding (kinetic) friction –friction force
when an object slides over a surface.
3. Rolling friction- friction force when
rollers and wheels roll over a surface
4. Air friction- friction force present that
opposes the fall of an object due to the
pull of gravity.

Gravity - pull to the center of the earth
Gravitational acceleration(g) = 9.8m /sec2 or
10 m/ sec2 =32 ft/ sec 2
Free Fall – motion going down due to gravity
Weight –downward force due to gravity, Newtons
weight = mass,kg X gravitational acceleration(g)
Air Friction , Newton– force that opposes the free fall
and slows down any falling object ; Parachute
provides air friction. The larger the area of the
parachute, the greater the air friction that slows down
the free fall.
Terminal Velocity – constant velocity when the
weight of the object equals the air friction.
Force of Gravity
 Shapes our solar system and universe
Law of Universal
Gravitation
 Every point mass attracts every single other
point mass by a force pointing along the line
intersecting both points. The force is
proportional to the product of the two masses
and inversely proportional to the square of the
distance between them:[3]
F = G m1m2 / d2
where:
F- force between masses
G= Gravitational Constant
6.67 X 10-11 Nm2/kg2
m1 and m2 – masses of the objects
d= distance between 2 masses
 Assuming SI units, F is measured in newtons
(N), m1 and m2 in kilograms (kg), r in meters
(m), and the constant G is approximately equal
to 6.674×10−11
N m2 kg−2.[4] The value of the constant G was
first accurately determined from the results of
the Cavendish experiment conducted by the
British scientist Henry Cavendish in 1798,
although Cavendish did not himself calculate a
numerical value for G[5]. This experiment was
also the first test of Newton's theory of
gravitation between masses in the laboratory. It
took place 111 years after the publication of
Newton's Principia and 71 years after Newton's
death, so none of Newton's calculations could
use the value of G; instead he could only
calculate a force relative to another force.
Problem :
 Compute the Force of Gravity between
0.3 kg masses whose centers are 1.5 m
apart.

Abstract
The project is about designing a a 3-5
loops roller coaster that will allow a 5g
marble to roll down at a speed of at least
5 m/s. This study will also compare the
effect of marbles with different masses
on the marbles’ individual speed.
My hypothesis is that speed of the
marble is affected by the beginning
height of the roller coaster.
The first step is to draw the architecture of the roller
coaster. The beginning height should be higher than the
first loop. I did a research about kinetic energy , potential
energy , gravity , free fall and weight .The next step is to
prepare a list of all materials which includes pipe
insulation, glue and wood to support the roller coaster.
After I bought all the materials, I tried my initial design , if
the marble rolls completely from start to finish. When the
marbles did not roll completely the whole track,
adjustments were made on the height and the diameter
of the loops. Then I worked on and made sure that the
support are rigid and strong enough to hold up the roller
coaster. I made necessary calculations for the speed of
the marble using the kinetic energy , potential energy and
the law of conservation of energy formulas.
I therefore conclude that , height of the starting point
and the loops affect the speed of the marble.
Hypothesis
 If the succeeding loops are lower than
the starting point and previous loops then
the marble will complete the tract from
start to finish.
 If the starting point of the roller coaster is
_______m high then the marble will roll
at a speed of 5 m/sec.
