Introduction to Physics Concepts

Deals with the motion of bodies under the action of forces.

Deals with heat, work, and energy, and the relationships between them.

Deals with the forces that occur between electrically charged particles.

Describes the motion of objects without considering the causes of motion.

Describes the motion of objects while considering the causes of motion, such as forces and torques.

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a force.

Force is equal to the change in momentum per change in time. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma).

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

The concept that matter and energy exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.
