Chapter 4 Forces I
Chapter 4 Forces I 4.1 The Important Stuff 4.1.1 Newton’s First Law With Newton’s Laws we begin the study of how motion occurs in the real world. The study of the causes of motion is called dynamics, or mechanics. The relation between force and acceleration was given by Isaac Newton in his three laws of motion, which form the

Chapter 6 Work, Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy
www2.tntech.eduThe potential energy U(r) also has units of joules in the SI system. When our physics problems involve forces for which we can have a potential energy function, we usually think about the change in potential energy of the objects rather than the work done by these forces. However for non–conservative forces, we must directly calculate

Chapter 1 Units and Vectors: Tools for Physics
www2.tntech.eduIf two vectors are perpendicular then their scalar product is zero. The vector product (or cross product) of vectors a and b is a vector c whose mag-nitude is given by c = absinφ (1.9) where φ is the smallest angle between a and b. The direction of c is perpendicular to the
Chapter 3 Static Equilibrium
