1 Forces and motion 1: Identifying forces University of York
2 Identifying forces All the questions in this set focus on the ability to identify the forces acting in everyday situations. Although there is no specific National Curriculum statement that says that pupils should be taught to do this, it is essential for many of the other statements. For instance, it is impossible to think about whether the forces acting on an object are balanced or unbalanced until you can identify what all the forces are. Many of the questions are suitable for use in Key Stage 2 classes, for example when teaching the ideas included in Unit 6E, Forces in Action in the QCA Scheme of work for Key Stages 1&2. They also relate directly to the ideas included in Unit 7K, Forces and their effects in the QCA Scheme of work for Key Stage 3. Some questions later in the pack return to situations considered in earlier ones, but with the addition of an extra, more challenging part-question. This enables you to choose the one best suited to the stage of understanding your pupils have reached. The questions deal with a small number of simple situations: two people pulling or pushing another object, which is not moving; a person pushing or pulling a heavy object, which is not moving; a person pushing or pulling a heavy object, which is moving at steady speed; an object hanging at rest from a support; an object sitting at rest on a surface. Some questions also include a rope or string connecting the interacting objects, thereby introducing a third object into the system. The first stage of understanding how the idea of forces can be used to explain examples of motion (or non-motion) is to appreciate which forces are involved in the situation without worrying too much about their relative sizes. Learning about their sizes can come later (and is probed much more fully in later sets of diagnostic questions on forces and motion). The key ideas underlying all the questions in this set are: a force is a push or a pull caused by an interaction between two objects; a force is always exerted by something, and on something (and it is important to be clear about which objects these are). A consequence of the first point above is that forces always come in pairs. If A exerts a force on B, then B exerts a force in the opposite direction on A. This always happens and doesn t depend on whether A or B moves or does not move, or on the relative sizes of A and B, or anything else. In these questions, the emphasis is on recognising that these partner forces arise every time a force is exerted. The set of questions Forces and Motion 5 probes understanding that the forces in an interaction pair are equal as well as opposite, in all situations. This basic point that forces come in pairs is not mentioned in the National Curriculum until Key Stage 4, but again it is difficult to see how a pupil can reach a clear understanding of simple examples of motion (or absence of motion) without it. For that reason, the questions in this set provide opportunities to develop pupils appreciation of this idea gradually, and in 6 University of York 2003
3 common everyday contexts where these ideas can more easily be related to experience. Questions 1-10 All of these ask about the forces acting on the main object in a given situation. Q1-3 are about two people pulling or pushing on an object; the questions ask about the forces on that object. Pupils are asked to mark forces using an arrow. Getting the direction of the force correct is more important than the relative sizes. It is important for pupils to be able to say which object each force identified is acting on. The exact point of application is less critical than the direction indeed for the extended objects involved in these situations, it is not always possible to be precise about the point of application of the forces. Q4-5 are about a person pushing or pulling on a box which is not moving. Pupils should identify a second force (due to friction) that is stopping the box moving. In order to emphasise that all forces are exerted by something on something, the friction force is referred to as the force exerted by the floor on the box. Q6-7 are about the same situations as Q4-5 but now with the box moving. Pupils may be less sure as to whether or not friction is now acting. Q8-9 consider an object hanging at rest. Q8 involves just two objects. Q9 is slightly more complicated by also involving a string linking the two. Here again, to emphasise the idea that forces are exerted by something on something, the force of gravity on an object is referred to as the force exerted by the Earth on the object. Finally Q10 considers the forces on a book lying on a table. Notes: 1 Some pupils may have difficulty with the idea that an inanimate object can exert a force. Perhaps the easiest way to get over this idea is to ask them to think about pushing on a spring with your hand. Although the spring is inanimate, it pushes back. In fact all objects distort like springs, though often by too small an amount to be seen. The origin of the pushing back force is exactly the same due to the restoring force of the material that has been distorted. 2 The choice of a box, sliding across the floor, rather than a trolley (or other object with wheels) rolling across it, is deliberate. The directions of the forces on wheeled vehicles, and the points at which they act, are complex so it is much easier to begin with examples in which the moving object slides. Questions These revisit the same situations as Q1-10, but now pupils are asked to label forces that are marked on the diagrams, rather than to mark specific forces on blank diagrams. Questions These questions revisit situations considered in earlier questions in the set. Parts (a) and (b) are repeats of earlier questions; in addition, however, these include a more difficult third (and in one case fourth) part which asks about the force on a second University of York
4 object involved in the situation the person pushing or pulling, or the support from which an object is hanging. This requires pupils to recognise the presence of the partner force in any interaction. Only six of the ten situations considered earlier are revisited; if you want to write similar questions for the other four situations, these provide a model to follow. Questions These questions take the earlier ideas a step further, by using a representation which isolates one object at a time from the situation being considered, and asks pupils to draw and label the forces acting on this object. A diagram of this sort is called a freebody diagram. Unlike earlier questions, these do ask about the relative size of the forces marked using the convention that a longer arrow means a larger force. Even so, direction and clear labels are still more important than sizes. Pupils may be more successful in identifying the forces on an object once they know about the link between force and motion, i.e. that: if an object is not moving, the forces on it must cancel each other out (add to zero); if the forces on an object do not cancel each other out (add to zero) it will move (indeed accelerate) in the direction of the total force. You may therefore think it more appropriate to use these questions after pupils have been taught about the connection between forces and motion, in Key Stage 3. Understanding of these ideas is not, however, probed explicitly by the questions in this set. They are the focus of the diagnostic questions in question set Forces and Motion 2. Q27-36 work well for small-group and whole-class discussion. One approach is to give each pupil a question sheet and allow them 5-10 minutes to write their own individual answers. Then put pupils into groups of three, and give each triad another blank copy of the question, perhaps enlarged to A3 size as a mini-poster. Encourage each group to discuss their answers and write an agreed best answer on the new sheet. This might take minutes. It is important that every member of the group is prepared to explain and justify this group answer. Then the groups answers can be pinned up on the wall, so everyone can see the whole set and the whole class can discuss what the answers should be. In this way, pupils may come to a better understanding of the ideas involved here, and of ways of representing them. Questions These questions are similar to Q11-20 in asking pupils to provide labels for marked forces. The forces marked are, however, more difficult ones to identify and label than those in Q11-20, which asked only about forces on the main object involved in the situation each time. In these questions, other forces in the various interaction pairs involved are also included. 8 University of York 2003
5 Questions The questions in this group are all in multiple choice format, so are quick to answer (and to mark). Q41-45 focus on the forces on the main object involved in the situation. Q46-49, on the other hand, look at the force exerted on the person pushing a box both when it does and doesn t move. This is a harder idea to grasp. The final two questions (Q48-49) also include the friction force on the pusher s feet. Similar questions (not included here) could be written about the situation of pulling an object. Q50-53 The final group of questions comprises four concept cartoons which explore ideas considered by earlier questions in the set. These could be displayed as posters while this topic is being taught, to encourage informal discussion. Or they could be used as individual or small-group activities. The response sheet provided with each cartoon is useful for making pupils think about their response to each of the comments of the cartoon characters. University of York

72 50 Colin s comment here is correct. The absence of motion does not mean there are no forces acting there may be balanced forces (as in this case) which add to zero. Colin and Diana may be thinking along similar lines. In fact there is an interaction between the bottle and the shelf. The shelf is slightly compressed (even apparently hard objects can be compressed microscopically) and tends to spring back to its normal position. This causes an upwards force on the bottle. 51 The ideas put forward here are similar to those in Q50. Charlie s comment is correct. 52 Again the ideas involved here are similar to those in Q50 and Q51. The only difference is that here it is the tension of a string that is involved, rather than the reaction of a surface. The underlying reasoning is the same. The string stretches slightly and tends to spring back to its natural length. This causes an upward force on the ball. So Carole s comment is correct. 53 As in Q50, the absence of motion does not mean there are no forces acting, so Ann s comment is incorrect. Cathy s comment is correct two forces which balance each other and add to zero. Dan expresses an idea which some students may share that friction is not a force but a kind of resistance. Friction is really the name for the interaction between two surfaces that try to slide over each other. This interaction gives rise to a pair of forces, one acting on each of the objects involved. We can refer to these, as Cathy does, as friction forces. 76 University of York 2003
