Document Summary
1st law is the law of inertia an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion. Unless acted on by a net force. Identified a net force as something that disturbs equilibrium. A net force causes an object to accelerate (effect) Third law: every force occurs as one member of an action/reaction pair of forces: the members of the pair act on different objects. The two members are equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction. Chapter 7 preview: interaction-objects exert forces on each other. Interaction: mutual influence of two objects on each other. Examples: hammer hitting a nail, baseball and bat, ropes in tug of war, iphone on top of physics book. All these forces come in pairs: action/reaction pairs: occur simultaneously. In 5 and 6 we considered forces on singular objects. We used a = fnet / m to determine object"s movement.
