- is parallel to the surface, but opposite in direction. Newton’s Laws of Motion
Types of Friction Aristole- view of motion is "it requires a force to make
an object move in an unnatural" manner
2.1 Static friction, f s– is the the friction without
movement - "motion requires force"
N – Normal Force
- f k =μk N
- is also present in water or any liquid, thus, it is - Once a force acts on an object making it

expressed as:
5. Applied Force- force applied by a person to an object.
- a ∝ F , where mass is constant
1 1. Mechanical Energy
- a∝ , where force is constant
m
- energy of macroscopic particles due to their
F velocity or position.
- ∴ a ∝ , or simply

- F net=ma

Newton’s Third Law of Motion 1 2
- KE= m v
- “For every force of action, there is an equal but 2
opposite reaction”
Work and Kinetic Energy
- Faction = Freaction
- Work is done only when there is a change in an
object’s kinetic energy.
Free Body Diagrams (FBD)
- W =∆ KE=KE f −KE i
- FBD method is used to identify all the type of
