Study Notes
Force and Pressure
- Air pressure on a 15cm x 15cm head surface is equivalent to the force of gravity on a 225kg object (2250N)
- This pressure is balanced by the equal pressure inside the body.
Types of Forces
- Muscular force: An archer applies a force causing a change in the bow's shape
- Contact force: The archer's force to stretch the bow is a contact force
- Non-contact force: The force causing a change in the arrow's motion is a non-contact force.
- Forces acting on the arrow: Gravity and air friction
- Examples of forces and effects:
- Squeezing lemon: Finger force extracts juice.
- Toothpaste tube: Finger force pushes out paste.
- Suspended load: Gravity pulls load down, spring exerts an upward force.
- High jump: Athlete's jump force overcomes gravity to clear bar.
Effects of Hammering
- Blacksmith's hammer force changes the hot iron's shape and properties.
Balloon-Wall Attraction
- Rubbing the balloon with synthetic cloth causes static electricity; this attraction force is involved.
Forces on a Bucket (Static)
- Forces on a bucket held in the air: Gravity pulling it down, opposing force (hand holding) pushing up. Since no motion change, forces are balanced.
Rocket Forces
- Two forces immediately after rocket launch: Gravity (downward) and thrust (upward)
Dropper and Pressure
- Water rises in a dropper due to atmospheric pressure.
