Name: Introductory Newton's 2nd Law Example Problem and Demonstration

Category: Dynamics

Date Added: 25 November 2014 - 02:12 PM

Submitter: Flipping Physics

Short Description: None Provided

This video could also be called "Finding the Force of Friction between a Dynamics Cart and Track†because we use Newton’s Second Law to analyze a demonstration and show how negligible the force of friction really is.

Content Times:

0:16 Reading the problem

0:37 Demonstrating the problem

2:30 Translating the problem

3:47 Drawing the free body diagram

4:36 Summing the forces in the x direction

5:32 Solving for acceleration

7:04 Solving for the force applied

7:29 Is the force of friction negligible?
