Newton's Three Laws of Motion

12th - Higher Ed
Mr. Andersen defines Newton's three laws of motion. He describes how the first law relates to inertia, how the second law relates to mass and acceleration, and how the third law allows a rocket to launch.

Newtons 2nd Law of Motion | Force, Mass, Acceleration

9th - Higher Ed
Newton's 2nd Law of Motion tells us that if a net force is applied to an object then that object will accelerate in the direction of the net force. This means that is a force a force is applied to an object, it will either speed up, slow...

The ONE thing your teacher is NOT telling you that will simply forces!

9th - Higher Ed
Forces are all around us and are the reason why objects accelerate (speed up, slow down or change direction)! Forces can either be balanced or unbalanced. When the forces are balanced, the net force is 0 and the object's motion will not...

How to Calculate Force - Newton's 2nd Law of Motion

9th - Higher Ed
Newton's 2nd Law tells explains how force can affect the acceleration of an object. The more force you apply to an object, the more it will accelerate. Also, the more mass an object has, the more force that is needed to cause the object...
