THREE LAWS OF MOTION

BONNIE RICK C. PATIÑO


Review
What is Enertia?

• Enertia is the tendency of objects in motion to


stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest,
unless a force causes its speed or direction to
change.
Objectives

• State the Law of Acceleration.


• Discuss the relationship between net force on an
object and its acceleration, and between the mass of
an object and its acceleration.
• Cite some applications of this law in our daily life.

Statement:

“ You may be bigger but I am


faster”
How is the statement related to mass and
acceleration?
Newtons Second Law

The acceleration of an object as produced by a net


force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the
net force, in the same direction as the net force, and
inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
How is acceleration related to the object’s mass
and the amount of force exerted?

if you apply a greater force to an object, its acceleration


increases. Conversely, if the mass of the object is
greater, the acceleration will be less for the same amount
of force. In other words, heavier objects require more
force to achieve the same acceleration as lighter ones.
What relationship exists between acceleration
and force; force and mass?

• The relationships between acceleration, force, and


mass are described by Newton's Second Law of
Motion. This law can be stated as:
• Force=Mass×Acceleration
Here’s how each relationship works:
• Acceleration and Force: The acceleration of an object is
directly proportional to the force applied to it. This
means that if you increase the force applied to an object,
its acceleration will increase, provided the mass of the
object remains constant.
• Force and Mass: The force applied to an object is
directly proportional to its mass. This means that for a
given acceleration, an increase in mass requires a
proportionally larger force to achieve that acceleration.
Conversely, for a given force, a larger mass will result in
a smaller acceleration.
How is the second law of motion applied to
everyday occurrences?
1. Driving a Car: When you press the accelerator, you apply a
force to the car. This force increases the car's acceleration,
making it go faster. The car’s mass also plays a role; a heavier
car requires more force to achieve the same acceleration as a
lighter one.
2. Pushing a Shopping Cart: When you push a shopping cart,
the force you apply causes the cart to accelerate. If the cart is
empty, it accelerates more quickly compared to when it is full
of groceries. This is because the mass of the cart affects how
much acceleration you can achieve with a given force.
