Newtons Laws of Motion
- If an object experiences no net force, then the velocity is constant, the object is either at rest (if its velocity is 0), or if it moves in a straight line with constant speed ( if its velocity is not zero).
- The acceleration (a) of a body is parallel and directly proportional to the net force (F) acting on the body, i in the direction of the net force, and is inversely proportional to the mass (m) of the body. (F=ma)
- Every action has an equal but opposite reaction.
- Kepler's Laws derived from Newton's Laws
- From general to particular
- Newton's Laws don't work for measuring Mercury's orbit
- Einstein's Laws give us Mercury's orbit
- Laws of Physics are invented by physicists
- Laws of physics change when new knowledge is available
- Predictions when validated by observations are the only conditions
- Mathematics work for nature (so far)
