 Dynamics: friction, where only fundamental
Newton’s laws forces such as gravity and tension
of motion act.
Understands the concept of friction
as a force that opposes motion and
 Friction Force how it affects the behavior of
moving objects.
 DYNAMICS

It is the area of mechanics that studies

the movement of bodies by analyzing
the cause.
 FORCE
Force (F) is a phenomenon that modifies the
movement of a body (accelerates, slows it down,
changes direction, etc.) or deforms it.
Forces can be represented by vectors, since they
have magnitude and direction.
 EXAMPLE 1

A 20kg body is at rest, suddenly a

force of 40N pushes it horizontally
for 3 seconds. Calculate the
acceleration of the block and its final
 EXAMPLE 3
A 15 grams coin is placed on a
frictionless plane. If you want to
produce an acceleration of 5m/s , 2

what is the magnitude of the force?
