Systems of particles
... In this chapter, we apply Newton’s laws to systems of interacting particles, which could be as simple as two particles moving in each other’s gravitational field (for example, a planet moving round the Sun that it is large enough for it not be a good approximation to regard the Sun as fixed) or as c ...

... body system. While doing this we will make sure to keep the total mass of the two body system constant by moving mass from the glider to the hanger. With the air track turned on, the hanging mass will be released and the glider will pass through two photogate timers. The photogate timers will be use ...

Mechanics 1 Revision Notes
... Forces behave as vectors (the physicists tell us so) - modelling. Velocity is a vector so must be given either in component form or as magnitude and direction. Speed is the magnitude of the velocity so is a scalar. Acceleration is a vector so must be given either in component form or as magnitude an ...
