Newton’s Laws of Motion:
T HE L AW
OF I NERTIA
Force
. . . an action exerted upon a body,
in order to change its state,
either of rest or of moving uniformly . . .
Sir Isaac Newton
Newton’s First Law
(The Law of Inertia)
Every body perseveres in its state of rest
or of uniform motion in a straight line
unless it is compelled to change that state
by forces impressed upon it.

Equilibrium
Which has greater net force?
You are driving your Porsche 911 Carrera along a straight testing track at a
constant speed of 150 km/h. You pass a 1971 Volkswagen Beetle
doing a constant
75 km/h. For which car is the net force greater?
Frame of Reference:
A coordinate system plus a time scale
formed by an observer
Inertial Frame of Reference:
A Frame of Reference with ZERO acceleration.

What if net force is not zero?
An external net force causes an object to
accelerate.
There is either
a change in the
magnitude of the velocity
a change in the
direction of the velocity
or both.

Suppose you have a

negligible friction. What is the acceleration of the box?

If we lessen the support on the book
Then we feel that the book is lighter

(The Law of Action and Reaction)
For every action,
there is an equal

Imagine that you are holding a book
weighing 4 N at rest on the palm of your
hand. Complete the following sentences:
a) A downward force of magnitude 4 N is
exerted on the book by ________.

b) An upward force of magnitude
________
________
4 N is exerted on the
book by
your hand.
c) Is the upward force in part (b) the
reaction to the downward force in part
NO
(a)?
d) The reaction to the force in part (a) is a force of
magnitude ________,
exerted on the
________
4N
earth by
________.
the
book Its direction is ________.
upward
e) The reaction to the force in part (b) is a force of
magnitude ________
exerted on your
________
4N
hand by
the
book Its direction is __________.
downward
________.
f) The forces in parts (a) and (b) are equal and opposite
first law.
because of Newton's ________
g) The forces in parts (b) and (e) are equal and opposite
third law.
because of Newton's ________
Now suppose that you exert an upward force of
magnitude 5 N on the book.
h) Does the book remain in equilibrium? NO
i) Is the force exerted on the book by your hand equal
and opposite to the force exerted on the book by the
earth? NO
j) Is the force exerted on the book by the earth equal
and opposite to the force exerted on the earth by the
book? YES
k) Is the force exerted on the book by your hand equal
and opposite to the force exerted on your hand by
the book? YES
Finally, suppose you snatch your hand away while the book is moving
upward.
l) How many forces then act on the book?
ONE
m) Is the book in equilibrium?
NO
