Newton's First Law |
A body will remain at rest or continue to move with constant velocity unless acted upon by a force. |
|
|
Newton's Second Law |
The resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum and the change in the momentum is in the same direction as the force. |
|
|
Newton's Third Law |
When body A exerts a force on body B, body B exerts an equal and opposite force of the same type on body A. |
|
|
One newton |
The force which gives a mass of 1kg and acceleration of 1ms^-2 |
F=ma |
|
Linear momentum |
The product of mass and velocity, momentum is a vector |
p=mv |
|
Impulse |
The product of the force acting on the body and the time it was acting. Equals the change in momentum. |
Ft=mu-mv |
|
Conservation of momentum |
The total momentum of a system will remain constant, provided no external forces. |
|
|
Perfectly elastic collision |
Kinetic energy and momentum are conserved. |
