Physics Notes

The document outlines Newton's Three Laws of Motion: the First Law states that objects remain at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an external force; the Second Law defines the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration; and the Third Law emphasizes that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. It also provides practical applications of these laws in everyday scenarios, such as vehicle safety and sports. Overall, Newton's Laws are fundamental principles for understanding motion in physics and mechanics.

Class Notes: Physics - Newton’s Laws of Motion

Date: February 28, 2025

Topic: Newton’s Three Laws

1. First Law (Law of Inertia):


- An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon
by an external force.
- Example: A book remains on a table until someone moves it.

2. Second Law (F = ma):


- Force equals mass times acceleration.
- More force means more acceleration for the same mass.
- Example: Pushing a lighter object requires less force than a heavier one.

3. Third Law (Action & Reaction):


- For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- Example: A rocket’s exhaust gases push downward, making the rocket move upward.

4. Applications of Newton’s Laws:


- Vehicle seat belts (First Law - prevents inertia from continuing motion).
- Sports (Second Law - applying more force increases acceleration).
- Walking (Third Law - foot pushes against the ground, and the ground pushes back).

Key Takeaways: Newton’s Laws explain the fundamentals of motion and are essential for
understanding physics and mechanics.
