Forces and motion can be described through Newton's three laws. A force is a push or pull that can cause an object to change its motion. Forces are measured in Newtons and can be combined, with balanced forces not changing motion and unbalanced forces causing acceleration. Friction opposes motion. Gravity pulls objects downward. Newton's first law states an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by a net force. The second law relates force, mass, and acceleration. The third law states for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. Momentum is conserved in a closed system. Other universal forces include electromagnetic, nuclear, and gravitational forces.

In physics, a force is an influence that can cause an object to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate, meaning a change in speed or direction, unless counterbalanced by other forces. The concept of force makes the everyday notion of pushing or pulling mathematically precise. Because the magnitude and direction of a force are both important, force is a vector quantity. The SI unit of force is the newton (N), and force is often represented by the symbol F.

Force plays a central role in classical mechanics, figuring in all three of Newton's laws of motion, which specify that the force on an object with an unchanging mass is equal to the product of the object's mass and the acceleration that it undergoes. Types of forces often encountered in classical mechanics include elastic, frictional, contact or "normal" forces, and gravitational. The rotational version of force is torque, which produces changes in the rotational speed of an object. In an extended body, each part often applies forces on the adjacent parts; the distribution of such forces through the body is the internal mechanical stress. In equilibrium these stresses cause no acceleration of the body as the forces balance one another. If these are not in equilibrium they can cause deformation of solid materials, or flow in fluids.
In modern physics, which includes relativity and quantum mechanics, the laws governing motion are revised to rely on fundamental interactions as the ultimate origin of force. However, the understanding of force provided by classical mechanics is useful for practical purposes.[1]

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. What is Force?
• A push or pull that acts on an object
• Can cause a resting object to move
• Can accelerate a moving object
– By changing its speed or direction
3. How is force measured?
• Spring scale
– Stretch of the spring depends on the mass
of the object acting on it
• Unit of Force
– Newton (N)
– 1 kg to accelerate 1 m/s2
– 2
1
s
m
kg
N
4. How is force represented?
• Use arrows
– Direction
– Strength
• Length represents
strength or
magnitude
– The scale with more apples, greater mass, has a longer
arrow. The arrow is pointed downward due to mass is
below the balance pulling downwards.
5. Combining Forces
• Forces in the same direction are added
together
• Force in the opposite direction are
subtracted
• Net Force
– Overall force acting on an object
6. Balanced vs. Unbalanced Forces
• Balanced
– Combine to produce a net force of zero
– No change in the object’s motion
• Unbalanced
– Net force equals the size of the larger
force minus the size of the smaller force
– Net force does not equal zero
– Causes an object to accelerate
8. Friction
• Force that opposes the motion of
objects that touch as they move past
each other
• Acts at the surface where objects are
in contact
• 4 types of friction
9. 4 Types of Friction
• Static friction
– Force that acts on objects
that are not moving
– Always acts in the direction
opposite to that of the
applied force
• Sliding friction
– Force that opposes the
direction of motion of an
object as it slides over a
surface
10. 4 Types of Friction
• Rolling friction
– Change in shape at the point
of rolling contact
• Fluid friction
– Opposes the motion of an
object through fluid
– Increases the speed of the
object moving through the
fluid
– Fluids (gas and liquids)
11. Gravity
• Force that acts between
two masses
• Attractive force
– Pulls objects together
• Earth’s gravity
• Acts downwards towards
the center of the earth
12. Gravity and Falling Objects
• Gravity causes objects to
accelerate downward
• Air resistance (fluid
friction) acts in the
direction opposite to the
motion and reduces
acceleration
13. Gravity and Falling Objects
• Terminal velocity
– Constant velocity of a
falling object when force of
resistance equals gravity
14. Projectile Motion
• Motion of a falling object after given an
initial forward velocity
• Causes a curved path
15. Newton’s 1st Law of Motion
• Law of inertia
– Inertia
• Tendency of an object to resist change
in its motion
• State of an object does not change as long
as the net force acting on it is zero
• An object at rest stays at rest, an object in
motion stays in motion at the same direction
and speed (until something acts on it)
• Inertia mini lab
18. Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
• The acceleration of an object is equal to the
net force acting on it divided by the objects
mass
– Mass
• Measure of inertia of an object and
depends on the amount of matter the
object contains
F = ma
Force = mass * acceleration
19. Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
• The acceleration of an object is always in
the same direction as the net force
• Net forces in the opposite direction of
object’s motion
– Force produces deceleration and reduces speed
– Ex. Seat belts
• Units for Acceleration are equivalent
– N/kg=m/s2
23. Weight and Mass
• Weight & Mass are Different
• Weight
– The force of gravity acting on an object
– Product of the mass and acceleration due
to gravity
– Unit is Newtons (N)
26. Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
a=F/m
= 60.0 N/40.0 kg
= 1.50 m/s2
a=F/m
= 10000 N/5000 Kkg
= 2 m/s2
1.A boy pushes forward a cart of groceries with a
total mass of 40.0 kg. What is the acceleration of
the cart if the net force on the cart is 60.0 N?
• 2.What is the upward acceleration of a helicopter
with a mass of 5000 kg if a force of 10,000 N acts
on it in an upward direction?
27. Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
3.An automobile with a mass of 1200 kg accelerates
at a rate of 3.0 m/s2 in the forward direction.
What is the net force acting on the automobile?
(Hint: Solve the acceleration formula for force.)
4.A 25-N force accelerates a boy in a wheelchair at
0.5 m/s2 What is the mass of the boy and the
wheelchair? (Hint: Solve Newton's second law for
mass.)
a=F/m F=ma
= 1200 kg(3.0 m/s2)
= 3600 N
a=F/m m=F/a
= 25 N/0.50 m/s2
= 50 k/=g
28. Section 2 Practice Problems
6.During a test crash, an air bag inflates to stop a
dummy's forward motion. The dummy's mass is
75 kg. If the net force on the dummy is 825 N
toward the rear of the car, what is the dummy's
deceleration?
a=F/m
= 825 N / 75 kg
= 11 m/s2
29. Section 2 Practice Problems
7.A bicycle takes 8.0 seconds to accelerate at a
constant rate from rest to a speed of 4.0 m/s. If
the mass of the bicycle and rider together is
85 kg, what is the net force acting on the bicycle?
(Hint: First calculate the acceleration.)
a=(vf-vi)/t
= (4.0 m/s) / 8.0 s
= 0.50 m/s2
F=ma
= 85 kg x 0.50 m/s2
= 43 N
30. Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion &
Momentum
• 3rd Law – when an object exerts a force on a
second object, that object exerts an equal
and opposite force on the first object
• Momentum
– Product of an object’s mass and its velocity
– Objects momentum at rest is zero
– Unit kg m/s
31. Law of Conservation of Momentum
• If no net force acts on a system, then the
total momentum of the system does not
change
• In a closed system, loss of momentum of one
object equals the gain in momentum of
another object
33. Universal Forces
• Electromagnetic – associated with charged
particles.
• Electric force and magnetic force are the
only forces that can both attract and repel.
– Electric forces act between charged objects or
particles such as electrons or protons.
– Magnetic forces act on certain metals, on the
poles of magnets, and on moving charges.
– **Universal forces = do not need to be in contact
– forces act over a distance
34. Universal Forces
• Nuclear forces – one strong and one weak –
hold the nucleus of atoms together and keep
the positive protons from repelling each
other and destroying the atom
– Strong nuclear force acts only on neutrons and
protons in a nucleus – holds them together. Acts
at a longer range than weak nuclear forces.
– Weak nuclear force acts only over a short range
35. Universal Forces
• Gravitational Force – an attractive force
acting between any two masses
– Gravitational force depends on two factors:
mass and distance apart
– More mass or less distance = more gravity
– Gravity acts over LARGE distances
– Weakest universal force
36. Universal Forces
• Centripetal force – center-directed force that
continuously changes the direction of an
object to make it move in a circle
• Centrifugal force (centrifuge) doesn’t
actually exist in science!
• Earth’s gravitational attraction keeps the
moon in an orbit around the Earth. This
gives us tides. Similarly to how the moon
orbits Earth, satellites are able to orbit!
