1) The document introduces Newton's three laws of motion, which formed the basis of classical mechanics. Newton published his laws in his seminal work "Principia" in 1687.
2) Newton's three laws are: 1) An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force. 2) The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force. 3) For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
3) While Newton's laws are approximations that break down at high speeds and small scales, they provided an extremely accurate description of motion for a wide range of masses and velocities that
Newton's laws of motion are summarized as follows: (1) Newton's first law states that 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 an unbalanced force. (2) Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the object's mass. (3) Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Isaac Newton was an English physicist and mathematician born in 1642 who developed the laws of motion and universal law of gravitation. He published his masterpiece "Principia Mathematica" in 1687 which described his three laws of motion and theory that gravity extends infinitely throughout the universe and is what keeps objects in orbit. While the story of an apple falling on his head inspiring gravity is likely untrue, observing a falling apple did lead Newton to realize that the force keeping apples on the ground must also be responsible for keeping the moon in orbit around Earth. His work revolutionized science and helped explain the fundamental mechanisms of the universe.
All classical search for the center of the universe tentatively ended with Newton. A new beginning of search based on Newton's laws of motion just began.
Newton's three laws of motion describe the relationship between forces and motion. The first law states that an object at rest stays at rest or an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. The second law states that the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. The third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton compiled his three laws of motion in his work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, published in 1687.
This document provides an introduction to the 16.07 Dynamics course at MIT. It will cover classical mechanics and its application to aerospace systems. Newton's laws of motion will be studied and used to analyze particle and rigid body motion. The course places emphasis on modeling aerospace vehicles and systems using classical mechanics. It provides context within the broader aerospace engineering curriculum, focusing on modeling natural dynamics prior to studying control systems. Real bodies will be approximated as particles or rigid bodies depending on the problem. Vectors, scalars, and Newton's three laws of motion are also introduced.
1) The document proposes a contradiction to Newton's first law of motion by considering what happens to an object placed in empty space when a force is briefly applied.
2) It argues that since the object's fundamental particles would absorb energy at different rates, the object's shape and velocity would change after the force is removed, rather than remaining constant as the first law states.
3) The author claims this shows Newton's first law is incorrect and should be revised to only apply to single fundamental particles rather than composite objects. Experimental testing of the idea is suggested.
Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. The total momentum of a closed system remains constant unless an external force acts on it, according to the law of conservation of momentum. Momentum can be transferred between objects during collisions. Perfectly elastic collisions conserve both momentum and kinetic energy, while inelastic collisions only conserve momentum as some kinetic energy is lost.
This document discusses the concept of energy from a physics perspective. It defines energy as the ability of a physical system to do work on other systems. There are many forms of energy including kinetic, potential, thermal, chemical, electric, nuclear, and more. Energy can be transformed between these different forms while the total energy within a closed system remains constant. The document also discusses the history of energy concepts and various systems for measuring and defining units of energy.

Here are 3 examples for each of Newton's Laws of Motion:
1st Law (Inertia):
- A car at rest stays at rest unless a force acts on it.
- A ball rolling across a table will keep rolling at the same speed and direction unless something stops it or changes its motion.
- An object in motion in outer space will stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless another force interacts with it.
2nd Law (F=ma):
- The harder you push on a heavy box, the slower it will accelerate compared to a lighter box with the same push.
- A rocket accelerates faster as it burns fuel and loses mass over time.
- Braking
This document discusses Isaac Newton's three laws of motion and their applications. Newton's first law states that objects at rest stay at rest and objects in motion stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Newton's second law establishes that force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma). Newton's third law describes that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Examples are provided to demonstrate these laws, such as how gravity causes apples to fall from trees and how objects with different masses accelerate at the same rate but with different forces due to their mass.
This document provides an overview of Chapter 5 from a physics textbook. It covers Newton's three laws of motion: 1) inertia and an object's resistance to changes in motion, 2) the relationship between force, mass and acceleration, and 3) that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Key topics discussed include force, inertia, equilibrium, calculating acceleration and force using Newton's second law, and identifying action-reaction force pairs per Newton's third law. Locomotion and biomechanics are also mentioned in relation to applying Newtonian mechanics to human and animal movement.
This document discusses Newton's laws of motion and provides sample problems applying Newton's laws. It also defines key terms related to forces and friction, including static friction, kinetic friction, coefficient of friction, rolling friction, and angle of repose. Students are assigned sample problems and seatwork applying Newton's laws and asked to define terms related to friction for the next meeting.
This document provides a summary of key concepts from a Physics chapter on the laws of motion. It begins with an introduction to kinematics and dynamics. It then discusses Newton's three laws of motion and their importance. The document outlines different types of forces, including fundamental forces, real/pseudo forces, and conservative/non-conservative forces. It also covers work, energy, impulse, torque, equilibrium, center of mass, and center of gravity. Examples and simulations are provided to help explain various concepts related to motion and forces.
La realización de un trabajo se relaciona con el consumo de energía, ya que la energía es la capacidad para realizar un trabajo (cuando un sistema realiza un trabajo sobre otro le transfiere energía).
Así, los conceptos de trabajo y energía aparecen identificados no sólo en las teorías físicas, sino también en el lenguaje coloquial. Dichos conceptos se fundamentan en las Leyes de Newton.
- Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. It is a vector quantity that points in the direction of travel.
- The rate of change of an object's momentum is directly proportional to the net external force acting on it. Newton's second law states that force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma).
- Examples are given to illustrate how momentum and force calculations can be used to determine the force needed to stop vehicles of different masses traveling at different velocities over different periods of time.
Quantum entanglement allows two particles to be correlated in such a way that measuring one particle instantly affects the state of the other, even when separated by large distances. Einstein was skeptical of this "spooky action at a distance," but experiments have confirmed that quantum entanglement violates locality by demonstrating correlations between distant particles that match predictions. While information is not actually transmitted faster than light, the measurement of one particle's properties, such as spin, instantly determines the properties of the entangled particle regardless of distance.
Newton's second law states that acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass. It also specifies that an object accelerates in the direction of the applied force. Force is calculated using the formula F=ma, where F is force in newtons, m is mass in kilograms, and a is acceleration in meters per second squared. Centripetal force is any force directed toward the center of an object's circular path, such as the force exerted by a skater's partner to keep them moving in a circle.
We believe the quantum entanglement is caused by the very space itself, not by any particles, and thus not bounded by the speed of light, so is the gravity, we stand at fireworks side.

It proceeds to explain each of Newton's three laws of motion - the law of inertia, the second law relating force and acceleration, and the third law of action and reaction. Several examples are provided to illustrate the laws. The document concludes by presenting five assignment problems applying Newton's laws.
- A disk of radius a rolls without slipping on a horizontal plane. The disk has a point mass m located at a distance l from its center along the radius.
- There are two non-holonomic constraint equations relating the angular velocity of the disk φ ̇ to the velocities of the center of mass and the point mass.

It also serves to check students' own work and understanding of concepts.
The MIT Physics Department was established in 1865 along with MIT. It has played a key role in physics education and research throughout its history. Some notable developments include Alexander Graham Bell working with professor Charles Cross in the 1870s on experiments that led to the invention of the telephone. In the 1930s, the department was revitalized under the leadership of John Slater who helped raise the standard of physics teaching and recruited many prominent physicists. Faculty authored influential textbooks used worldwide. The department pioneered new approaches to physics education, including the Physical Science Study Committee led by Jerrold Zacharias in the 1950s which produced new high school physics curriculum. The department has continued innovating introductory physics courses to better serve a diverse student

This document provides information about the Classical Mechanics I & II courses (MA1241 & MA1242) taught at Trinity College Dublin in the 2013-14 academic year. It lists the lecturer, Stefano Kovacs, his contact information, and class meeting times. It describes the textbooks that will be used, which cover Newtonian mechanics.

Assessment will be based on a final exam and homework assignments.
This document provides an overview of Newton's three laws of motion. It begins with an abstract summarizing the laws and their importance. It then presents the laws in more detail, providing examples of each law from everyday life. It also works through some sample problems applying Newton's second law to calculate accelerations and tensions. The document concludes that Newton's laws formed the basis of classical mechanics and continue to accurately describe motion except at very small scales or near the speed of light.
Gravity is a natural force that attracts all physical objects to each other. Newton developed his law of universal gravitation, which states that the gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This law implies Kepler's laws of planetary motion and provided an explanation for why planets orbit the sun and moons orbit planets.
The essential strength of the science of physics lies in the depth of its conceptual schemes, in the relatively few principles that to unify a broad range of knowledge about the physical universe.
One foundation of this knowledge comes from Isaac Newton and those on whom he based his work. These scientists not only solved an important problem in the field of dynamics, they laid the groundwork for the thought processes involved in solving these problems.
1) The document discusses the philosophy of space and time and how Einstein introduced his theories of special and general relativity.
2) Special relativity is valid when no forces act, while general relativity removes this restriction to apply to gravitational forces as well.
3) Tests of general relativity have confirmed its predictions regarding Mercury's orbit, light deflection, gravitational lensing, and gravitational waves.
This document discusses the incompatibility between classical mechanics and electromagnetism. It shows that under a Galilean transformation, the wave equation governing electromagnetic waves takes on a different form in different reference frames, violating Galilean invariance. This means that the laws of electromagnetism depend on the choice of reference frame. As such, classical mechanics and electromagnetism cannot be unified without modifications to account for this issue.
The presentation covered Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, which aimed to reconcile Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism with the laws of mechanics. It established two postulates: the laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames, and the speed of light in a vacuum is constant. This led to strange consequences like relativity of simultaneity, time dilation, length contraction, and mass-energy equivalence. The theory helped particle physics by allowing for production of new particles but also made particle acceleration more difficult to achieve high energies needed.
This document summarizes Sir Isaac Newton's three Laws of Motion and the Law of Universal Gravitation. It explains that the first law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. The second law states that the acceleration of an object depends on its mass and the applied force. The third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. It also describes gravity as the force that attracts objects toward Earth's center and explains how gravitational attraction depends on mass and distance between objects.
The special theory of relativity proposed in 1905 by Einstein describes how measurements of time, space, and phenomena appear different in reference frames moving at constant velocity relative to each other. Unlike Newtonian mechanics, special relativity is not restricted to a particular type of phenomenon and instead affects all fundamental physical theories. The theory of relativity led to profound changes in how we perceive space and time, showing that measurements are not the same in different reference frames moving relative to one another.

Sir Isaac Newton published his book "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1686, in which he described his three laws of motion that formed the foundation of classical mechanics. The first law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force. The second law states that acceleration is proportional to force, and the third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton's laws established simple mathematical relationships to describe motion and showed that physical laws are universal, revolutionizing views of the universe. His work provided the first satisfactory description of particle kinetics using these three fundamental theorems of motion.
List of some important physics topics useful for studentscalltutors
This document provides an overview of important physics topics for students to study. It begins by defining physics as the study of how things work in nature and the universe. Some key physics topics are then listed and briefly described, including kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, vectors and projectiles, work and energy, thermal physics, and vibrations and waves. Kinematics is defined as describing motion without considering causes. Newton's laws relate to uniform motion, forces and acceleration, and action-reaction. The document concludes by encouraging students to study these physics topics to aid in assignments.
Absolute truth is conceptualized with reference to meaning and procedure, within the limits of self-containment, which is a characteristic feature that is shared commonly between the universe, humans, and the institutions that they establish in society; and the human intellect is presented as being endowed with the capacity to appreciate it, given the appropriate environment

This document provides an overview of Newton's three laws of motion. It defines each law and provides examples to illustrate them. Newton's first law states that 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 an unbalanced force. The second law establishes the relationship between an object's mass, its acceleration, and the applied force. The third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
1) The document provides lecture notes on forces and Newton's laws of motion. It introduces dynamics, the concept of force, and Newton's three laws of motion.
2) Newton's first law states that 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 an unbalanced force.
3) Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the direction of the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
1. Classical physics studies phenomena that occur at relatively small speeds compared to the speed of light, such as mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism. Modern physics studies phenomena at or near the speed of light, including quantum physics and relativity.
2. Einstein's theory of relativity proposes that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial reference frames and that the speed of light in a vacuum is a universal constant. Special relativity describes physics for objects moving at constant speeds, while general relativity accounts for variable speeds and the effects of gravity on spacetime.
3. General relativity showed that spacetime has geometry that is not fixed but depends on the distribution of matter and energy. The curvature of spacetime is equivalent
Sometimes, if you want to understand how nature truly works, you need to break things down to the simplest levels imaginable. The macroscopic world is composed of particles that are-if you divide them until they can be divided no more-fundamental. They experience forces that are determined by the exchange of additional particles (or the curvature of spacetime, for gravity), and react to the presence of objects around them. At least, that’s how it seems. The closer two objects are, the greater the forces they exert on one another. If they’re too far away, the forces drop off to zero, just like your intuition tells you they should. This is called the principle of locality, and it holds true in almost every instance. But in quantum mechanics, it’s violated all the time. Locality may be nothing but a persistent illusion, and seeing through that facade may be just what physics needs.

A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...DharmaBanothu
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs
Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency Using Information on Consumer's Ac...PriyankaKilaniya
Energy efficiency has been important since the latter part of the last century. The main object of this survey is to determine the energy efficiency knowledge among consumers. Two separate districts in Bangladesh are selected to conduct the survey on households and showrooms about the energy and seller also. The survey uses the data to find some regression equations from which it is easy to predict energy efficiency knowledge. The data is analyzed and calculated based on five important criteria. The initial target was to find some factors that help predict a person's energy efficiency knowledge. From the survey, it is found that the energy efficiency awareness among the people of our country is very low. Relationships between household energy use behaviors are estimated using a unique dataset of about 40 households and 20 showrooms in Bangladesh's Chapainawabganj and Bagerhat districts. Knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency technology options is found to be associated with household use of energy conservation practices. Household characteristics also influence household energy use behavior. Younger household cohorts are more likely to adopt energy-efficient technologies and energy conservation practices and place primary importance on energy saving for environmental reasons. Education also influences attitudes toward energy conservation in Bangladesh. Low-education households indicate they primarily save electricity for the environment while high-education households indicate they are motivated by environmental concerns.
Properties of Fluids, Fluid Statics, Pressure MeasurementIndrajeet sahu
Properties of Fluids: Density, viscosity, surface tension, compressibility, and specific gravity define fluid behavior.
Fluid Statics: Studies pressure, hydrostatic pressure, buoyancy, and fluid forces on surfaces.
Pressure at a Point: In a static fluid, the pressure at any point is the same in all directions. This is known as Pascal's principle. The pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the fluid above.
Hydrostatic Pressure: The pressure exerted by a fluid at rest due to the force of gravity. It can be calculated using the formula P=ρghP=ρgh, where PP is the pressure, ρρ is the fluid density, gg is the acceleration due to gravity, and hh is the height of the fluid column above the point in question.
Buoyancy: The upward force exerted by a fluid on a submerged or partially submerged object. This force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, as described by Archimedes' principle. Buoyancy explains why objects float or sink in fluids.
Fluid Pressure on Surfaces: The analysis of pressure forces on surfaces submerged in fluids. This includes calculating the total force and the center of pressure, which is the point where the resultant pressure force acts.
Pressure Measurement: Manometers, barometers, pressure gauges, and differential pressure transducers measure fluid pressure.

Accident detection system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The Rapid growth of technology and infrastructure has made our lives easier. The
advent of technology has also increased the traffic hazards and the road accidents take place
frequently which causes huge loss of life and property because of the poor emergency facilities.
Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could get accident information and
reach in time. Our project will provide an optimum solution to this draw back. A piezo electric
sensor can be used as a crash or rollover detector of the vehicle during and after a crash. With
signals from a piezo electric sensor, a severe accident can be recognized. According to this
project when a vehicle meets with an accident immediately piezo electric sensor will detect the
signal or if a car rolls over. Then with the help of GSM module and GPS module, the location
will be sent to the emergency contact. Then after conforming the location necessary action will
be taken. If the person meets with a small accident or if there is no serious threat to anyone’s
life, then the alert message can be terminated by the driver by a switch provided in order to
avoid wasting the valuable time of the medical rescue team.
We have designed & manufacture the Lubi Valves LBF series type of Butterfly Valves for General Utility Water applications as well as for HVAC applications.

1. Chapter 4
Newtonian Mechanics
4.1. Introduction
The world we live in is a complex place, and we must expect any
theory that describes it accurately to share that complexity. But
there are three assumptions, satisfied at least approximately in many
important physical systems, that together lead to a considerable sim-
plification in the mathematical description of systems for which they
are valid.
The first of these assumptions is that the system is “isolated”,
or “closed”, meaning that all forces influencing the behavior of the
system are accounted for within the system. The second assumption
is that the system is “nonrelativistic”, meaning that all velocities are
small compared to the speed of light. The third assumption is that
the system is “nonquantum”, meaning that the basic size parameters
of the system are large compared with those of atomic systems (or,
more precisely, that the actions involved are large multiples of the
fundamental Planck unit of action).
These assumptions put us into the realm of “classical” physics,
where dynamical interactions of material bodies are adequately de-
scribed by the famous three laws of motion of Newton’s Principia.
Of course, such systems can still exhibit great complexity, and in
fact even the famous “three body problem”—to describe completely
the motions of three point particles under their mutual gravitational
attraction—is still far from “solved”. Moreover, at least the latter
two of these assumptions are quite sophisticated in nature, and even
explaining them carefully requires some doing. Later we shall see that
91
2. 92 4. Newtonian Mechanics
a comparatively unsophisticated fourth assumption—that a system is
“close to equilibrium”—cuts through all the complexity and reduces
a problem to one that is completely analyzable (using an algorithm
called the “method of small vibrations”). This magical assumption,
which in effect linearizes the situation, is far from universally valid—
magic after all only works on special occasions. But when it does
hold, its power is much too valuable to ignore, and we will look at
it in some detail at the end of this chapter, after developing the ba-
sic theory of Newtonian mechanics and illustrating it with several
important examples.
We commence our study of Classical Mechanics with a little his-
tory.1
4.2. Newton’s Laws of Motion
We have already referred several times to “Newton’s Laws of Mo-
tion”. They are a well-recognized milestone in intellectual history
and could even be said to mark the beginning of modern physical
science, so it is worth looking at them in more detail. They were first
published in July of 1686 in a remarkable treatise, usually referred to
as Newton’s Principia,2
and it is not their mere statement that gives
them such importance but rather the manner in which Newton was
able to use them in Principia to develop a mathematically rigorous
theory of particle dynamics.
Let us look first at Newton’s original formulation of his Laws of
Motion:
AXIOMATA SIVE LEGES MOTUS
Lex I. Corpus omne perseverare in statuo suo quiescendi vel mov-
endi uniformiter in directum, nisi quatenus a viribus impres-
sis cogitur statum illum mutare.
1We are grateful to Professor Michael Nauenberg of UCSC for his critical
reading of this section and for correcting several inaccuracies in these historical
remarks.
2The full Latin title is “Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica”, or
in English, “Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy”. This first edition
is commonly referred to as the 1687 edition, since it was not distributed until a
year after it was printed.
3. 4.2. Newton’s Laws of Motion 93
Lex II. Mutationem motus proportionalem esse vi motrici impressae,
& fieri secundum lineam rectam qua vis illa imprimitur.
Lex III. Actioni contrariam semper & qualem esse reactionem: sive
corporum duorum actiones in se mutuo semper esse quales &
in partes contrarias dirigi.
Even though we are sure you had no difficulty with the Latin, let’s
translate that into English:
AXIOMS CONCERNING LAWS OF MOTION
Law 1. Every body remains in a state of rest or of uniform motion
in a straight line unless compelled to change that state by
forces acting on it.
Law 2. Change of motion is proportional to impressed motive force
and is in the same direction as the impressed force.
Law 3. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, or,
the mutual actions of two bodies on each other are always
equal and directed to opposite directions.
The first thing to remark is that, mathematically speaking, there are
only two independent laws here—the First Law is clearly a special
case of the second, obtained by setting the “impressed motive force”
to zero.3
Another point worth mentioning is that the Second Law does not
really say “F = ma”. Newton was developing the calculus at the same
time he was writing the Principia, and no one would have understood
his meaning if he had written the Second Law as we do today. In
fact, if one reads the Principia, it becomes clear that what Newton
intended by the Second Law is something like, “If you strike an object
3However, as we shall see later, the First Law does have physical content
that is independent of and prior to the Second Law: it asserts the existence
of so-called “inertial frames of reference”, and it is only in inertial frames that
the Second Law is valid. Moreover, the First Law also has great historical and
philosophical importance, as we shall explain in more detail at the end of this
section.
4. 94 4. Newtonian Mechanics
with a hammer, then the change of its momentum is proportional to
the strength with which you hit it and is in the same direction as the
hammer moves.” That is, Newton is thinking about an instantaneous
impulse rather than a force applied continuously over time. So how
did Newton deal with a nonimpulsive force that acted over an interval
of time, changing continuously as it did so? Essentially he worked
out the appropriate differential calculus details each time. That is,
he broke the interval into a large number of small subintervals during
which the force was essentially constant, applied the Second Law to
each subinterval, and then passed to the limit.
The Third Law does not say that the force (or “action”) that
one body exerts on another is directed along the line joining them.
However this is how it usually gets used in the Principia, and so it
is often considered to be part of the Third Law. We will distinguish
between the two versions by referring to them as the weak and strong
forms of Newton’s Third Law.
It is pretty clear that these Laws of Motion by themselves are in-
sufficient to predict how physical objects will move. What is missing
is a specification of what the forces actually are that objects exert
upon each other. However, later in the Principia Newton formulated
another important law of nature, called The Law of Universal Grav-
itation. It states that there is an attractive force between any two
particles of matter whose magnitude is proportional to the product of
their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance
separating them. One of the most remarkable achievements of the
Principia was Newton’s derivation of the form of his law of gravita-
tion from the Laws of Motion together with Kepler’s laws of planetary
motion, and we well give an account of how Newton accomplished this
later, after we have developed the necessary machinery.
If one takes Newton’s law of gravitation seriously, it would ap-
pear that a small movement of a massive object on the Earth would
be instantaneously felt as a change in the gravitational force at arbi-
trarily great distances—say on Jupiter. This “action at a distance”
was something that made Newton and many of his contemporaries
quite uncomfortable. Today we know that gravitation does not work
precisely the way that Newton’s law suggests. Instead, gravitation
5. 4.2. Newton’s Laws of Motion 95
is described by a field, and changes in this field propagate with the
speed of light. The force on a test particle is not a direct response to
the many far-off particles that together generate the field, but rather
it is caused by the interaction of the test particle with the gravita-
tional field in its immediate location. To a good approximation, the
gravitational field is described by a potential function that gives New-
ton’s law of gravity, but the detailed reality is more complicated, and
accounting for small errors observed in certain predictions of Newto-
nian gravitation requires the more sophisticated theory of Einstein’s
General Relativity.
Newton’s Laws of Motion themselves are now known to be only
an approximation. In situations where all the velocities involved
are small compared to the speed of light, Newton’s Laws of Motion
are highly accurate, but at very high velocities one needs Einstein’s
more refined theory of Special Relativity. Newton’s Laws of Mo-
tion also break down when dealing with the very small objects of
atomic physics. In this realm the more complex Quantum Mechanics
is needed to give an accurate description of how particles move and
interact.
But even though Newton’s Laws of Motion and his Law of Grav-
itation are not the ultimate description of physical reality, it should
not be forgotten that they give an amazingly accurate description of
the dynamics of massive objects over a vast range of masses, veloci-
ties, and distances. In particular, in the two hundred years following
the publication of Principia, the consequences of Newton’s Laws of
Motion were developed into a mathematical theory of great elegance
and power that among other successes made predictions concerning
the motions of the planets, moons, comets, and asteroids of our own
solar system that were verified with remarkable accuracy. We will
cover some of this theory below.
We will end this mainly historical section with an explanation of
why the First Law of Motion has such great historical and philosophi-
cal importance. We quote Michael Nauenberg (with permission) from
part of a private exchange with him on this subject:
Newton made it clear in the Principia that he credited
Galileo with the Second Law. What should be pointed
6. 96 4. Newtonian Mechanics
out is that the great breaktrough in dynamics in Galileo
and Newton’s time came about with an understanding of
the First Law. Before then, it was understood that to ini-
tiate motion required an external force, but the idea that
motion could be sustained without an external force seems
to have escaped attention. Even stones and arrows some-
how had to be continuously pushed during their flight by
the surrounding air, according to Aristotles and later com-
mentators, until Galileo finally showed that the air only
slows them down, and in the absence of air friction, they
travelled along a parabolic path. In earlier manuscripts
Newton spoke also of “inertial forces”. Apparently even he
could not free himself completelely from millenia of confu-
sion.
4.3. Newtonian Kinematics
As has become traditional, we will begin our study of the Newtonian
worldview with a discussion of the kinematics of Newtonian physics,
i.e., the mathematical formalism and infrastructure that we will use to
describe motion, and only then will we go on to consider the dynamics,
that is, the nature of the forces that express the real physical content
of Newton’s theory of motion.
A Newtonian (Dynamical) System (V, F) consists of an orthog-
onal vector space V , called the configuration space of the system,
together with a vector field F on V , i.e., a smooth map F : V → V ,
called the force law of the system. (By an orthogonal vector space we
just mean a real vector space with a positive definite inner product.)
For the time being V will be finite dimensional and its dimension,
N, is called the number of degrees of freedom of the system (V, F).
Later we will also consider the infinite-dimensional case. If you want
to think of V as being RN
with the usual “dot-product”, that is fine,
but we will write u, v to denote the inner product of two elements
u and v in V and v to denote the “length” of a vector v (defined
by v
2
= v, v ).
The reason why we call V configuration space is that the points of
V are supposed to be in bijective correspondence with all the possible
