Momentum and Conservation of Momentum in One Dimension
... In any collision or explosion, the total momentum is always conserved. This principle proves to be very useful in predicting what will happen when objects collide or explode. Actually, the principle of the Conservation of Momentum is a direct consequence of Newton’s Third Law of Motion that we learn ...

... Since the object is not moving, it is not accelerating. Thus the net force is zero. Shown at right is a typical example from that unit: Find the force of tension in each rope. A new condition can now be added into this type of problem: Since the object is at rest, it must not be rotating, as that wo ...

Force and Acceleration
... Force and Acceleration Newton’s second law states that any net external force applied to a mass causes the mass to accelerate according to the equation F = ma. Because of frictional forces, experience does not always seem to support this. For example, when you are driving a car, you must apply a con ...
