May the Force be with you!!

An exercise in Newton's laws, forces, momentum, and their applications.

AB
Net ForceThe sum of all the forces acting on an object.
WeightThe gravitational force exerted by a large body.
Newton's First LawThings at rest will remain at rest, and things in motion will continue with constant speed and direction unless acted on by a net force.
Newton's Second LawF=ma
Newton's First LawF=0
Newton's Second LawThis law allows us to analyze how an object's motion changes when a net force acts on it.
NewtonUnit of force.
FrictionA force that opposes motion.
Static FrictionA force that opposes the start of motion.
Sliding (kinetic) FrictionThe opposing force between objects in relative motion.
MomentumThe product of an object's mass and velocity.
Momentump=mv
ImpulseThe product of a net force and the time interval over which it acts.
ImpulseThe change in an object's momentum.
Law of Conservation of MomentumThe momentum of any closed, isolated system does not change.
Change in Momentumm(v2-v1)
Normal ForceThe contact force between an obect and the surface it lies on.
IntertiaThe tendency of an object not to change its motion.
VectorsQuantities with both magnitude and direction.
Force and MomentumVector quantities.
