In our previous lessons, we have described uniform motion and
uniformly accelerated motion but we have not discussed what causes
motion or what stops an object from moving or what keeps an object
to stay at rest.

Do you have any idea what causes motion or what stops an object from
moving or cause an object at rest to remain at rest?

 MODEL #1

A book is at rest on a table-

top. A free-body diagram
for this situation looks like
this:

•Complete Questions 2,3 & 5

Model #4
Independent Practice

•Complete Question 4.
Folder Pass
At each table, there is a scenario.

As a group you have 4 minutes to identify the forces and draw the
diagram for the scenario in the appropriate box.

Folders should be passed towards the front on the classroom, i.e.

Table 76 6 5 5 7
Objective: Students will: Define force, draw a free
body diagram and calculate the net force acting on
an object.
Summary
Pull out your Do now sheet Did we meet
today’s objective? How do we know? What
did youlearn that connects to the objective?
