Study Notes
Newton's Laws of Motion
- A body that is not acted upon by a force remains at rest or continues to move with a constant velocity.
- Isaac Newton used his three laws of motion to investigate and explain the motion of objects on Earth and in the universe.
Newton's Second Law of Motion
- There is a direct relationship between a body's acceleration, mass, and net force: acceleration is directly proportional to net force and inversely proportional to mass.
Newton's Third Law of Motion
- The forces exerted by two bodies on each other are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
History of Newton's Laws of Motion
- Newton's laws of motion were first stated in the late 17th century.
Fundamental Interactions
- The strongest fundamental interaction is the strong nuclear force.
- The weakest fundamental interaction is gravity.
Gravity
- Gravity has no significant influence at the atomic and subatomic scale.
- Gravity determines the motion of planets, stars, and galaxies.
- Gravity plays a crucial biological function in maintaining the structure and function of living organisms, particularly in the case of plants and animals.
