The Nature of Force
... Newton’s third law refers to forces on two different objects. Example: Soccerball If one player hits the ball – force is upward. The ball exerts an equal but opposite downward force on the player. The action and reaction forces are acting on different objects and therefore cannot be added togeth ...

... Since we adjust the coordinate system so that x = 0 corresponds to the spring being unstretched, then the stretch of the spring is simply equal to x. The spring force becomes Fspring = − k x In addition, there is a damping (friction) force that resists the motion. It is proportional to the velocity. ...
