Distance, Velocity, and Acceleration

Suppose a dragster has constant acceleration.

If a dragster starts from rest and accelerates to 60 mph in 10 seconds. How far did it travel?

momentum

Newton’s 1st Law:

“Every body persists in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it.”

“In the absence of a net force applied to an

object, momentum stays constant.”

Newton

Holtzapple

Newton’s Second Law

The time-rate-of-change of momentum is proportional to the net force on the object.

If mass is constant...

Newton’s Third Law

“To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or, the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and directed in contrary parts.”

Newton

Newton’s Third Law

Other statements

Forces always exist by the interaction of two (or more) bodies

The force on one body is equal and opposite to the force on another body

It is impossible to have a single isolated force acting in one direction

The designation of an “action force” and a “reaction force” is arbitrary because there is mutual interaction between the bodies

Newton’s Third Law

A Consequence

The earth and the moon orbit about a common point about 1000 miles below the surface of the earth because the earth pulls on the moon and the moon pulls on the earth.

Example: Newton’s 3rd Law

Consider a rocket with constant exhaust gas velocity:

The mass changes (obviously) as the fuel is burned and the gas is ejected.

fuelve

mv

Positive

Example: Newton’s 3rd Law

The magnitude of the net force acting on the rocket can be determined by observing its acceleration

where m is the instantaneous mass of the rocket and dv is the instantaneous change in rocket velocity.

netFdt

vdmam

Example: Newton’s 3rd Law

The magnitude of the net force acting on the ejected gas is

where ve is the velocity of ejected gas and dm/dt is the rate mass is ejected from the rocket.(Note: The origin of this equation will become more clear when we do Accounting for Momentum.)

Why Newton’s Laws?

Engineers use models to predict things such as motion, fluid flow, lift on an airplane wing, movement of neutrons in a nuclear reactor, deflection of beams or columns, etc.

Newton’s laws are widely used and a good first example of engineering models.

More on Models

Question: If I toss a piece of chalk at a sleeping student, does its path follow a parabola?

Answer: Not exactly, because air resistance affects the motion. Also, we should consider the effect of the spinning earth as it moves around the sun in an ellipse. However, for most practical work, a parabola is close enough.
