Newton's Laws of Motion and Inertia, Schemes and Mind Maps of Law

Mechanics of Solids and FluidsClassical MechanicsNewton's Laws of MotionVector calculus

An introduction to Newton's First Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Inertia. the concept of inertia as an object's resistance to changing its motion, the definitions of speed and velocity, and the role of forces in changing an object's motion. Examples and exercises are included.

Forces and Newton’s First Law Inertia is an object’s resistance to changing its motion white board marker hoop bottle What is inertia? Types of Forces Contact forces: interactions between objects that touch Non-contact forces: attract or repel, even from a distance applied force drag force magnetic force electric force gravitational force spring force frictional force Deciphering Newton’s First Law “Every body persists in its state of being at rest or of moving uniformly straight forward, except insofar as it is compelled to change its state by force impressed.” —Sir Isaac Newton Principia Mathematica (1687) Write: In your own words, what does this mean? Isaac Newton, 1642-1727 Unless an unbalanced force acts on an object,  An object at rest stays at rest  An object in motion stays in motion Newton’s First Law of Motion Objects in motion stay in motion and objects at rest stay at rest—unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Also called the “law of inertia.” Egg Inertia Puzzle wo What’s different about these two eggs? Concept Review 1. An object’s resistance to changing its motion is called ______. 2.
