  • Force is a push or a pull exerted by an object on another
  • Force between two bodies that are in contact with each
    other is called contact force
  • muscular force, friction force, and Spring force is an example of contact force
  • Force that acts even if the interacting bodies are
    separated by a distance is called noncontact or action
    at a distance force
  • Examples of noncontact forces are gravitational force,
    electrostatic force between charged bodies and
    magnetic force
  • Gravitational force is the attractive force exerted
    by objects with mass
  • Electromagnetic force is the force that holds
    atoms and molecules together
  • Strong nuclear force is the force between
    protons and neutrons in a nucleus
  • Weak nuclear force plays a role in the radioactive
    decay of some nuclei
  • Grand Unified Theory is the theory that
    attempted to unify strong nuclear force, weak
    nuclear force, and electromagnetic force
  • Theory of Everything is theory that tried to unite
    all fundamental forces
  • only the electromagnetic force and the
    weak nuclear force have been successfully united to
    form the electroweak force through the efforts of
    Sheldon Glashow Abdus Salam and Steven
    Weinberg in the 1970 ’ reducing the fundamental
    forces from four to three
  • ISAAC NEWTON
    1. He was credited for being the first to describe the motion of massive objects and formulate the three laws of motion. Newton’s laws of motion constitute the fundamental principles of dynamics, which deals with force in relation to the motion of an object
  • Newton’s first, second, and third laws
    of motion are also called
    1.
    Law of Inertia
    2.
    Law of Acceleration
    3.
    Law of Interaction
  • The law of inertia states that a body at rest
    will remain at rest and a body in motion will
    continue to move with constant velocity
    unless acted upon by an unbalanced
    external force.
  • A resultant force that is not equal to zero is considered an
    unbalanced force.
  • The net force or resultant force is the vector sum of all the
    forces acting on a body.
  • Inertia is the property of a body that tends to resist change
    in its state of motion.
  • Mass is a measure of inertia
  • The greater the mass , the greater the inertia . The
    greater the inertia , the harder it is to change the state of
    motion of a body.
  • Newton’s law of inertia as well as Republic Act 8750
    (otherwise known as The Seat Belt Use Act of 1999) are
    two reasons why we need to use seatbelts.
  • The net force of an object is equal to the
    product of its mass and acceleration, or
    F=ma.
  • The acceleration of the body is directly proportional to the
    net force acting upon it.
  • Furthermore, the acceleration is inversely proportional to
    the mass of the body.
  • The greater the mass of a body, the lesser the acceleration.
  • 1 N = 1 kg · m/s²
    1 dyne = 1 g · cm/
    1 N = 10⁵ dynes
  • The weight of a body on Earth is the measure of the force
    of gravity exerted by Earth on it.
  • On the other hand, mass is the amount of matter of a body
    contains.
  • Mass and weight are related as
    w = mg
  • The mass of the body is constant while its weight
    depends on the value of acceleration due to gravity .
  • Newton’s third law of motion states that for
    every action, there is an equal but opposite
    reaction.
  • Work is defined as the dot product of force F and
    displacement d in the direction of the force.
  • The SI unit of work is the newton meter (N · m)m), also
    called the Joule (J) in honor of James Prescott Joules.
  • A smaller unit of work is the erg , which is derived from
    ergon, the Greek word for “ work ”.
  • 1 J = 1 N · m
    1 erg = 1 dyne · cm
    1 J = 10⁷ ergs
  • Energy is defined as the capacity to do work
  • Energy comes in many forms. These include light energy,
    chemical energy, heat energy, and electrical energy
  • Mechanical Energy is the sum of the potential and
    kinetic energies of the body.
  • Potential energy represented by U is the energy
    possessed by a body by virtue of its position or
    configuration
  • There are two types of potential energy
    Gravitational Potential Energy (U g)
    Elastic Potential Energy (U s)
