When two or more external forces acting on a body produce a net resultant force, i.e, the vector sum of forces is not zero, the forces are unbalanced. Newton’s Second Law Of Motion Newton’s Second Law of Motion says that the resultant force acting on a body produces a net acceleration and causes the body to accelerate in the direction …
Newton’s 3 Laws Of motion Newton’s 3 laws of motion are: We will explore first and third law of motion in this post and the 2nd law of motion in greater details in the subsequent posts. Newton’s First Law Of Motion When two or more external forces acting on a body produce no net resultant force, i.e., vector sum of …
Force A force can be a push or a pull. A force acting on a body tend to produce a change in velocity or acceleration of the body. What Can A Force Do? A force can: Main Types Of Forces Gravitational Force Electromagnetic Force Nuclear Force/ Strong Force Weak Force Other Types of Forces Contact Force Contact force is a …
Collision In a collision, two particles come together for a short time and thereby produce impulsive forces on each other. Remember that all forces are field forces when viewed at small enough scale. Even an object in space pulled around by the gravitational forces of the planets or Sun may be considered as collisions. Consider two objects with mass $m_{1}$ …
Introduction Materials can be identified by the characteristics they display under the influence of applied forces. Various materials exhibit distinct properties, and scientists assess them by subjecting them to compressive or tensile forces. In 1678, Robert Hooke documented his findings on elasticity, noting that certain springs exhibited a linear region of extension corresponding to the applied force. This insight from …
