... 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 ...

PES 1110 Fall 2013, Spendier Lecture 10/Page 1 Today:
... Inertial Reference Frames Reference frames in which Newtonian mechanics holds are called inertial reference frames or inertial frames. These are reference frames that move with constant velocity , including v = 0. We typically say that the ground is an inertial frame. But we know from last lecture t ...

... The mass is constrained to move up and down the slope. It has one degree of freedom and therefore only one coordinate is needed to completely describe the motion. The coordinate x(t) has been selected as shown in the figure. It is measured from the unstretched spring position, so that at x=0.0 the f ...
