If moving, it continues to move in a straight line at a constant speed. This is a law describing an inertial reference frame.

Chapter 2 - Motion in One Dimension dt Position: x(t)  x-coordinate at time t, y(t)  y-coordinate at time t, etc. Force: F, a push or pull, the cause of any true acceleration, a vector Average speed: average speed  total distance moved/Δt (Δt = elapsed time) quantity. In SI units forces are measured in Newtons (N); in British Displacement: Δx  xfinal – x initial units forces are measure in pounds (lbs). Average velocity: <v>  Δx/Δt Inertial mass: m, a measure of how an object responds to a force, a scalar t quantity. In SI units masses are measured in kilograms (kg); in British Velocity: v  dx/dt = slope on x(t) plot. Hence Δx =  v(t)dt units masses are measured in slugs. t0 Newton’s Second Law – The Second Law of Motion: Acceleration: a  dv/dt = d2v/dt2 = slope on v(t) plot. In an inertial reference frame: t 1. Accelerations are caused by forces. Hence Δv = a(t)dt 2. a = F/m, or F = ma. The force in this relationship is the net force  acting upon the accelerating body, i.e., it is the sum of all forces t0 Kinematic relationships valid iff a = constant: acting upon that body, F  Fnet  F i. 2 2 2 i v = v0 + at, x = x0 + v0t + ½ at , x = x0 + ½ (v + v0)t, v = v0 + 2a (x - x0) Free fall: 3. a is in the same direction as F, always. a = -g (assuming that displacement is taken as positive upward and Newton’s Third Law – The Third Law of Motion: ignoring air resistance and other smaller effects) If body A exerts a force on body B, then body B exerts a force, equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction, on body A, i.e.., FAB =  FBA, where Chapter 3 - Vectors FAB is the force exerted on body B by body A and FBA is the force exerted Vector notation: A is a vector, A is its magnitude (which includes units) and on body A by body B. This law is sometimes called the Law of Action and Reaction. This is a somewhat misleading title because it implicitly uˆ is a unit vector in the direction of A. Hence A  Auˆ. The implies a cause-effect relation between the two forces which are associated direction of uˆ is given by the right-hand rule. with any interaction. In reality, neither force of a force pair is more Vector components in two dimensions: A = Axî+ Ayĵ = (Ax, Ay) fundamental than the other and neither should be viewed as the cause of r is a position vector in two dimensions: r = xî+ yĵ = (x, y), r = (x2 + y2)½ the other. All forces occur in pairs. There are no isolated forces. Dot (scalar) product: AB  AB cos θ (θ is the angle between A and B) Fundamental Forces: There are only four kinds of forces: 1. Gravity: all objects with mass attract all other objects with mass. Also A  B  AxBx  AyBy  AzBz. 2. Electromagnetic Force: all forces experienced at the macroscopic Cross (vector) product: AB  AB sin θ uˆ ( uˆ is a unit vector normal to level, except gravity, are electromagnetic, including tension, the plane of A and B in the direction given by the right-hand rule. ) compression, friction, buoyancy and viscous drag. 3.
