Chapter 4 Force and Motion
... Why study Newton’s laws? We use them to solve an enormous number of real-world problems. Most of the first half of your text is applications of Newton’s laws. Matter has inertia. An object at rest “wants” to stay at rest. A moving object “wants” to keep moving. There are lots of different ways to st ...
