--> 00:00:14.340 motion there is an equation that goes 5 00:00:14.340 --> 00:00:16.260 along with this law 6 00:00:16.260 --> 00:00:19.619 this equation states that Force equals 7 00:00:19.619 --> 00:00:23.760 mass times acceleration 8 00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.939 that means the mass of an object and the 9 00:00:26.939 --> 00:00:29.640 force pushing it determine how fast that 10 00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:31.800 object will move 11 00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:33.899 let's take another look at Newton's 12 00:00:33.899 --> 00:00:36.659 equations so we can break it down 13 00:00:36.659 --> 00:00:41.159 the F in the equation stands for force 14 00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:43.800 have you ever thrown a football pushed a 15 00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:44.760 swing 16 00:00:44.760 --> 00:00:46.559 pulled a wagon 17 00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:50.579 squeezed a sponge or Twisted the cap off 18 00:00:50.579 --> 00:00:52.620 a soda bottle 19 00:00:52.620 --> 00:00:55.860 if you've done any of these things then 20 00:00:55.860 --> 00:00:58.620 you have applied force to an object 21 00:00:58.620 --> 00:01:03.000 pushing pulling twisting and squeezing 22 00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:06.659 are all ways to apply Force to something 23 00:01:06.659 --> 00:01:09.840 sometimes people apply Force to things 24 00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:12.720 and other times different objects apply 25 00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:14.880 Force to each other 26 00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:17.520 but whenever a force is applied there 27 00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:20.159 are always two things interacting 28 00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.680 now let's define the word mass in 29 00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:24.900 Newton's equation 30 00:01:24.900 --> 00:01:27.780 mass is the amount of matter or stuff 31 00:01:27.780 --> 00:01:32.159 inside everything even us 32 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.680 all objects are made up of different 33 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.860 amounts of matter that means their mass 34 00:01:37.860 --> 00:01:39.659 is different too 35 00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:43.740 for example an elephant has way more 36 00:01:43.740 --> 00:01:48.060 mass than a cricket on the other hand a 37 00:01:48.060 --> 00:01:51.960 large balloon has much less mass than a 38 00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:54.659 small rock even though the balloon is a 39 00:01:54.659 --> 00:01:57.000 lot bigger than the Rock The Rock has 40 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.180 more mass because it is made up of more 41 00:02:00.180 --> 00:02:01.619 matter 42 00:02:01.619 --> 00:02:03.780 here's another example 43 00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:06.840 a softball is about the same size as a 44 00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:08.038 cannonball 45 00:02:08.038 --> 00:02:11.400 but the softball is lighter or has less 46 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:13.620 mass than the Cannonball 47 00:02:13.620 --> 00:02:16.440 that's because the matter or stuff 48 00:02:16.440 --> 00:02:20.520 inside each ball is different and what 49 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:23.819 they are made up of affects how much 50 00:02:23.819 --> 00:02:25.500 mass they have 51 00:02:25.500 --> 00:02:28.919 a cannonball is made from lead which has 52 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:30.419 a lot of mass 53 00:02:30.419 --> 00:02:34.200 while a softball is made from Cork which 54 00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:37.020 has a lot less mass than lead 55 00:02:37.020 --> 00:02:38.900 see if you can answer these questions 56 00:02:38.900 --> 00:02:41.400 which has more mass 57 00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:45.599 a golf ball or a ping-pong ball 58 00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.260 did you say golf ball you're right how 59 00:02:49.260 --> 00:02:53.700 about a bowling ball or a basketball 60 00:02:53.700 --> 00:02:55.800 if you said bowling ball you're right 61 00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:57.000 again 62 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:59.340 let's move on to the last part of 63 00:02:59.340 --> 00:03:01.260 Newton's equation 64 00:03:01.260 --> 00:03:04.379 celebration acceleration means a change 65 00:03:04.379 --> 00:03:06.860 in speed or direction 66 00:03:06.860 --> 00:03:10.680 if you step on the gas pedal of a car it 67 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:11.879 moves 68 00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:14.159 when you pedal a bike it does the same 69 00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:15.419 thing 70 00:03:15.419 --> 00:03:17.900 if you go off a ramp on your skateboard 71 00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:21.739 you accelerate 72 00:03:21.900 --> 00:03:24.300 now that you know the definitions of 73 00:03:24.300 --> 00:03:28.139 force mass and acceleration 74 00:03:28.139 --> 00:03:30.060 let's see how these things work together 75 00:03:30.060 --> 00:03:32.879 in Newton's second law of motion 76 00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:35.580 take a look at this baseball pitcher 77 00:03:35.580 --> 00:03:40.019 he can throw a baseball very fast 78 00:03:40.019 --> 00:03:42.840 if that same picture was given a 79 00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:44.459 cannonball to throw 80 00:03:44.459 --> 00:03:46.680 do you think he'd be able to throw it as 81 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:50.940 fast or as far as the baseball 82 00:03:50.940 --> 00:03:54.659 the answer is no do you know why 83 00:03:54.659 --> 00:03:56.819 if you said it's because the Cannonball 84 00:03:56.819 --> 00:03:58.739 has a lot more mass than the baseball 85 00:03:58.739 --> 00:04:01.379 you are absolutely right 86 00:04:01.379 --> 00:04:04.500 but it also has to do with Force 87 00:04:04.500 --> 00:04:07.620 because the Cannonball has more mass it 88 00:04:07.620 --> 00:04:10.080 requires a lot more Force to make it 89 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.379 move or accelerate like the force from a 90 00:04:13.379 --> 00:04:14.580 cannon 91 00:04:14.580 --> 00:04:17.100 one more thing that is important to know 92 00:04:17.100 --> 00:04:18.720 about forces 93 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:23.820 they are either balanced or unbalanced 94 00:04:23.820 --> 00:04:26.639 look at these kids playing tug of war 95 00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:28.979 did you notice how neither side is 96 00:04:28.979 --> 00:04:31.440 moving even though all the kids are 97 00:04:31.440 --> 00:04:34.740 pulling very hard that's because the 98 00:04:34.740 --> 00:04:37.740 forces are balanced that means that the 99 00:04:37.740 --> 00:04:40.139 forces on both sides of the Rope equal 100 00:04:40.139 --> 00:04:41.220 each other 101 00:04:41.220 --> 00:04:45.000 so neither side accelerates or moves but 102 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.279 let's see what happens if we put more 103 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:49.740 mass on one of the sides 104 00:04:49.740 --> 00:04:52.560 what do you think will happen now 105 00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.560 the forces are now unbalanced 106 00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.139 and because they're unbalanced the side 107 00:04:58.139 --> 00:05:00.600 with more force is causing the Rope to 108 00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.560 move or accelerate in that direction 109 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:06.479 Newton's second law is all around us 110 00:05:06.479 --> 00:05:09.300 like in our example of the game of tug 111 00:05:09.300 --> 00:05:10.380 of war 112 00:05:10.380 --> 00:05:14.339 throwing a baseball or a cannonball 113 00:05:14.339 --> 00:05:16.860 and pulling a wagon with different 114 00:05:16.860 --> 00:05:18.960 amounts of mass 115 00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:21.300 take a look around and see if you can 116 00:05:21.300 --> 00:05:23.880 find any other examples of Newton's 117 00:05:23.880 --> 00:05:26.699 Second Law hope you had fun learning 118 00:05:26.699 --> 00:05:30.900 with us visit us at learnbrite.org 119 00:05:30.900 --> 00:05:33.720 for thousands of
