This document includes notes on Newton's Laws (first law of motion, second law of motion, third law of motion and law of universal gravitation) and electric fields (Coulomb's Law) from the IEB SAGS. It contains IEB SAGS definitions and further explanations and examples.
1. 1 Newton 's First Law of Motion
( moving with constant)
↳ unless it is acted
an object continues in a state of rest or uniform a
velocity upon a net
force
↳
if an object has mass then it has inertia (M mass ,
9 inertia )
↳ inertia is the of
property of a
body that causes it to resist a change in its state rest
or uniform motio
Examples
1 .
Why does the rider continue to move forward after collision ?
↳
during the collision , the barrier exerts a net horizontal force on the bike
bringing it
to rest

according to Newton 's First Law , the rider will continue moving forward with uniform
velocity

Application of Newton 's second law to horizontal 1 vertical motion
↳ a net force is a
single force that has the same effect as the
original forces acting
together
↳
net force is
equal to the vector sum of individual forces ( Fn et Fi tf Fs )
