Explain how the motion of an object is affected when balanced and unbalanced forces act on it.

Compare and contrast the four types of friction.

What is Newton’s universal law of gravitation?

Describe the factors affecting gravitational force.

Infer how momentum is a relationship between mass and velocity of an object, p=mv. The focus should be on the conceptual understanding that the same momentum could be associated with a slow-moving massive object and an object moving at high velocity with a very small mass (e.g.-100 kg object moving 1m/s has the same momentum as a 1-kg object moving 100m/s).

Explain change in momentum in terms of the magnitude of the applied force and the time interval that the force is applied to the object. Everyday examples of the impulse/momentum relationship include: the use of air bags in cars; time of contact and “follow-through” in throwing, catching, kicking, and hitting objects in sports; bending your knees when you jump from a height to the ground to prevent injury.

Recognize that the weight of an object is a measure of the force of gravity and is the product of its mass and the acceleration due to gravity: Fg=mg.

(static), a box pushed across the floor (sliding), a ball rolling across the floor (rolling), a boat moving through a river (fluid), or an object in free-fall (fluid).

Explain the property of inertia as related to mass – the motion of an object will remain the same (either at rest or moving as a constant speed in a straight line) in the absence of unbalanced forces; if a change in motion of an object is observed, there must have been a net force on the object.

Explain balanced and unbalanced forces mathematically and graphically with respect to acceleration to establish the relationship between net force, acceleration, and mass: a ∞ F and a ∞ 1/m (no trigonometry).

Explain qualitatively and quantitatively the relationship between force, mass and acceleration- the greater the force on an object, the greater its change in motion; however, the same amount of force applied to an object with less mass results in a greater acceleration.

While the second law describes a single object, forces always come I equal and opposite pairs due to interaction between objects. Give examples of interaction between objects describing Newton’s third law – whenever one object exerts a force on another, an equal and opposite force is exerted by the second on the first. The third law can be written mathematically as F A→B = -F B→A. Students should explain why these forces do not “cancel each other out”.
