One of the pillars in the study of physics, particularly of motion
Newton's scientific works
Three laws of motion: law of inertia, law of acceleration, law of interaction
Became the bases of many discoveries
Motion and acceleration of an object
Affected by the forces acting on it
Greater the force applied to an object
Higher the acceleration
Force
Factor in the amount of work done
Work
Amount of work that one can do per unit of time is the measure of one's power
Work
Possible because of the energy that one possesses to do it
Motion
The change in position of an object over time. It can be described by measuring the object's displacement, velocity, and acceleration.
Acceleration
The rate of change of an object's velocity. It can be caused by forces acting on the object.
Direction
Forces can change an object's direction of motion.
Speed
Forces can increase or decrease an object's speed.
Forces
Pushing or pulling actions that can cause an object to change its motion. Forces can be contact forces (direct contact between objects) or non-contact forces (actions at a distance).
