Kinematics and Dynamics

Part 2
Learning Objectives
• Newton’s Law
• Motion with Constant Acceleration
• Linear motion
• Projectile motion
• Inclined planes
• Circular motion
• Mechanism Equilibrium
• Free-Body Diagrams
• Translational equilibrium
• Rotational equilibrium
Newton’s First Law

• At rest or in motion with constant velocity


Newton’s Second Law
Newton’s Third Law
Linear Motion
Projectile Motion
• The velocities and accelerations in two directions (horizontal
and vertical)
• Two directions (horizontal and vertical) are independent and
must be analyzed separately
• Only vertical direction (y-axis) experience the force and acceleration of
gravity
Inclined Planes
Circular Motion

• The instantaneous velocity


vector is always tangent to
the circular path
• Centripetal force: a force
that maintains the objects
circular pathway
• Always point radially inward
Free-Body Diagrams
• A diagram used
to show the
relative
magnitude and
direction of all
forces acting
upon an object
in a given
situation
Translational Equilibrium
• Equilibrium, where forces cause an object to move without any
rotation
• Exists only when the vector sum of all of the forces acting on an object
is 0
• Objects will not accelerate
• Constant velocity: either stationary or moving with a constant nonzero velocity

• Any problem regarding translational motion can be solved using


free diagram and Newton’s three laws
Rotational Equilibrium
• Equilibrium, where forces are applied against an object in such
a way as to cause the object to rotate around a fixed pivot point
(fulcrum)

• Equilibrium conditions
• Exists only when the vector sum of all of the torques acting on an
object is 0
• Not rotating
• Rotating with constant speed
• Torque depends on three factors
• The magnitude of the force
• The length of the lever arm
• The angle at which the force is applied
