Newton's First Law Newton's First Law The first law says that if an object is not This also means that if an object is pushed or pulled upon, its velocity will standing still and is not contacted by natucally remain constant. any forces, it will continue to remain ¢ This means that ifan object is moving motionless. along, untouched by a force of any kind, 6, unto y ym The tendency of an object to remain it will continue to move along in a f ) ° perfectly straight line at a constant in its existing state is known as speed inertia (by Galileo's explanation). 7 Newton's Second Law Newton's Second Law of motion explains how an object will change velocity if it is pushed or pulled upon. © Ifa net external force Facts on an object of mass mto produce an acceleration a in the direction of the force, then we have F=ma. The unit of force is Newton (N) or kgms Newton's Second Law © This law states that if you do place a force on an object, it will accelerate, ie., change its velocity, and it will change its veloci in the direction of the force. @ The acceleration is directly proportional to the force. For instance, if you are pushing on an object, causing it to accelerate, and then you push, say, three times harder, the acceleration will be three times greater Newton's Second Law The acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. For example, if you are pushing equally on two objects, and one of the objects has five times more mass than the other, it will accelerate at one fifth the acceleration of the other Newton's Second Law Impulse is the product of force and its duration of action, Fé, or the change in momentum. elmpulse = Fo =my— mu (Change in momentum) Then, F = d(mv)/dt = mdv/dt - vdm/dt Newton's Second Law eFrom F = d(my)/dt Impulse = [,2 F dt = change in momentum =shade area under (F-t) graph. Newton's Third Law @ Newton's Third Law states that for every external force that acts on an object there is a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction which acts back on the abject which exerted that external force. Newton's Third Law © For every force there is an equal and opposite force. For example, if you push ona wall, it will push back on you as hard as you are pushing on it. =A Fs Fe | e.

Summary (Newton’s Law) elmpulse = Ft = mv—- mu (Change in momentum) 3.2, LINEAR MOMENTUM AND ITS CONSERVATION 3.2-Linear- momentum and its conservation. During any interaction in which no external forces act, the total linear momentum is conserved. eThe linear momentum of a body of mass m, moving with velocity y, is given by p= mv. ¢The units of momentum are kgms*, 3.2. Linear momentum and its conservation. © The principal of conversation of linear momentum states that the total linear momentum of a system of bobies is constant, if no external forces act on the system. © The momentum pofa mass m moving with a velocity vis p = mv 3.2.
