Study Notes
Laws of Motion
- The laws of motion are a set of three physical laws that describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it
Laws
- There are three laws of motion:
First Law
- Also known as the law of inertia
- An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move with a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force
Second Law
- Force is equal to the rate of change of momentum
- F = ma (force equals mass times acceleration)
Third Law
- For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
