newton`s first law of motion—inertia
... Galileo argued that only when friction is present—as it usually is—is a force needed to keep an object moving. He tested his idea by rolling balls along plane surfaces tilted at different angles. He noted that a ball rolling down an inclined plane speeds up, as shown in Figure 3.3a. The ball is roll ...

Systems of particles So far, we have discussed only the application of Newton’s laws to particles, or to bodies in situations where they can be treated as particles — planets in orbit round the Sun, for example. In this chapter, we apply Newton’s laws to systems of interacting particles, which could ...
