... Forces come from interactions, which means that… …in any impulse delivery, apart from the object “receiving” the impulse, there is always another object, the agent, which “delivers” that impulse (and vice versa!) ...

Forces
... When is Newton’s first law valid? • If NO net force acts on rider, rider maintains a constant velocity. But as seen in non-inertial frame of the accelerating vehicle, it appears that rider is being pushed. • Newton’s first law is valid only in non-accelerating inertial frames. ...

Relativity
... General Relativity, 2 In 1905, Einstein confined his thinking to inertial frames of reference, but inertial motion is the exception, not the rule. For the next several years he pondered the laws of physics as they applied to bodies that were speeding up, slowing down, and changing direction. In ...

... Mass This is the modern version of Inertia. Mass is a fundamental property of objects. In Physics mass is measured in kilograms. Net Force The total vector force acting on an object. Newtons The standard unit for Force is kgm/s2, but as a convenient shorthand, this string of units is referred to as ...

... Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum If no external force acts on a system, then its total linear momentum remains conserved. Linear momentum depends on frame of reference but law of conservation of linear momentum is independent of frame of reference. Newton’s laws of motion are valid only in ine ...
