FORCES
 LEARNING OUTCOMES
INT-1.A
Describe an object
(either in a state of equilibrium or acceleration)
in different types of physical situations such as
inclines, falling through air
resistance, Atwood machines, or circular
tracks).
 LEARNING OUTCOMES
INT-1.B
a. Explain Newton’s first law in qualitative
terms and apply the law to many different
physical situations.
b. Calculate a force of unknown magnitude
acting on an object in equilibrium.

A block of mass m is sliding down an inclined
plane that makes an angle with the horizontal, as
shown in the figure. The coefficient of kinetic
friction between the surface and the block is . What
is the correct expression for the acceleration of the
block?
Blocks A and B of masses and , respectively,
are attached to an ideal pulley to create the
Atwood’s machine shown in the figure. Draw
the free-body diagrams for the blocks when
they are released from rest if
>?
A block of mass ‘m’ is initially
moving on rough surface inclined at
angle above the horizontal, as shown
in
Figure 1. Figure 2 shows the four
forces acting on the block. Describe
the motion of the block.
