Two Hanging Masses
... If there is a net force acting on a body, regardless of whether the body is already moving, the body accelerates. If a body is moving with constant velocity, then it is not accelerating and the net force acting on it is zero. The net force could be zero either because there are no forces acting on t ...

Newton`s Laws of. Motion
... Almost every problem in classical mechanics involves a choice (explicit or implicit) of a reference frame, that is, a choice of spatial origin and axes to label positions as in Figure 1.1 and a choice of temporal origin to measure times. The difference between two frames may be quite minor. For inst ...

... - replacing multiple forces acting on a particle with a single equivalent or resultant force, - relations between forces acting on a particle that is in a state of equilibrium. • The focus on particles does not imply a restriction to miniscule bodies. Rather, the study is restricted to analyses in w ...

... In particular Newton’s laws require one to work in an inertial frame in Cartesian coordinates, which is often inconvenient. The Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms, on the other hand, are coordinate independent, and provide a more elegant and computationally efficient framework in which to work. F ...
