Forces

Newton's Three Laws of Motion

First Law

Second Law

Third Law

Inertia

Objects at rest/motion tend to stay at rest/motion

Force and Acceleration

F = ma

Action and Reaction

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

F(a) = −F(b)

As water goes out from the bottom, the rocket will fly up.

The force of the rocket is determined by the mass and acceleration.

The rocket will remain in rest unless acted on by a force.

Net Force = Mass x Acceleration

Work and Energy

Work

Energy

W = Fd

Action of an object that displaces an object

Kinetic Energy

Potential Energy

Examples

Pushing a cart 10 m with 10 N of force

Pushing a building 0 m with 20 N of force

Equal to 100 J

SI unit

joule (J)

1 J = 1 N * m

Equal to 0 J
