Newton's First Law :



·

object at rest stay at rest G object in motion stays in motion

unless acted upon by an OUTSIDE FORCE "LaW Of INERTIA"

Newton's second Law :

-

·
accerulation of object to force applied a to mass F =
m . Newtons




Newton's Third Law :

·
every action has EQUAL a OPPOSITE reaction



Center of Mass :

·
If force applied & CENTER OF MASS -
Object will move as
NT

·
If force OT &
applied ROTATE
CENTER - Object Will

Torque :




·
twisting force causes rotation

·
CLOCKWISE = (-) z= F -
& N mjoule
.




·
Farther from center of mass > LESS FORCE needed -
