How can we describe Newton’s
1st law?
Introduction to Newton’s laws of
Motion
Dynamics – is the branch of mechanics
that deals with how the forces acting on an
object affect its motion.
 An object in dynamic equilibrium moves
with constant velocity. That means No
NET Force! Net force equals zero.

How can we apply Newton’s first
law of motion?

A .5 kilogram mass is hanging from a
spring. How can we determine the net
force?
How can we describe the two states of
equilibrium?
Equilibrium
Static Equilibrium
Net force zero, object at rest
Dynamic Equilibrium
Net force zero, object moving
with constant velocity
How can we describe inertia?
Inertia is the tendency of an object to
resist a change in state of motion.
 Mass is used to measure inertia.
(kilograms)
 Inertia and mass are directly proportional.


Example: The more mass an object has the
more inertia the object has.
Newton’s first law of motion – An object at
rest will remain at rest and an object in
motion (constant velocity) will remain in
motion unless acted on by an unbalanced
force.
 Have you ever experienced inertia in an
automobile while it is braking to a stop?

Describe the following situation using Newton’s
first law.
While riding a skateboard (or bicycle), you fly
forward off the board when hitting a curb which
abruptly halts the motion of the skateboard.
To dislodge ketchup from the bottom of a
ketchup bottle, it is often turned upside down
and thrusted downward at high speeds and then
abruptly halted.
How can we apply Newton’s 2nd
law?
A 6 kilogram box is being pushed with a
25 newton force to the left on a table. The
box is moving with constant velocity.

Newton’s second law states when an
unbalanced force acts on an object, the object
is accelerated in the same direction of the
force.
The net force is NOT zero. NO Equilibrium.

between acceleration and mass.

the object’s mass
