... Galileo’s statement on natural states of matter: Any velocity once imparted to a moving body will be rigidly maintained as long as the external causes of retardation are removed!! Galileo’s statement is formulated by Newton into the 1st law of motion (Law of Inertia): In the absence of external forc ...

P4: Explaining Motion
... If we increase the time over which the force acts then the resultant force will be smaller (the change in momentum is unchanged!) • This is the principle used in crash helmets, air bags, seat belts, climbing ropes and crumple zones on cars ...

... Gravity is a force of attraction that acts between two objects. (examples: Earth and the sun, the moon and Earth, you and Earth) We will just look at the gravity Earth exerts on objects. Earth’s gravity acts downward toward the center of the earth. Gravity causes objects to accelerate downward, whil ...

... Station 11; Newton’s Laws/Speed graph Background Information: Newton's First Law of Motion is often stated as: An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Put another w ...

Notes on Terminal Velocity and Simple Harmonic Motion – Physics C
... At t=0, the acceleration is g, since the velocity is zero. This can be confirmed using Newton’s Second Law, mg-kv=ma, and mg-0=ma so therefore a=g at t=0. After a long time, the acceleration of the object is zero. It is important to help the students learn to plug in these limiting values to determi ...
