Laws of Motion

In this article, we discuss the concept of the orbital velocity of a satellite. It basically refers to the amount of velocity required by a satellite to be launched into the orbit of a planetary system. We further discuss the formula by which you can calculate the velocity required by a satellite to be launched […]

Newton’s first law of motion outlines how objects behave when all external forces are equal and balanced. For instance, the first law of motion, commonly referred to as inertia, stipulates that if all forces acting on a body cancel each other, the object’s acceleration will be zero. When items are in equilibrium, they cannot accelerate

Newton’s First Law According to Newton’s first law of motion, if a body is stationary or moving at a consistent speed, it will continue to do so until an external force acts upon it. In classical Newtonian physics, there is no significant difference between rest and uniform motion in a straight line. Therefore, they can

Murphy’s law is a well-known aphorism that asserts, “Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.” Because of the historical context in which Murphy’s law arose, it is a well-known remark. Murphy’s law offers numerous examples and circumstances that are relevant to our daily lives. It simply says that if there are several ways to

Motion in a straight line The natural motion of an object travelling in a straight line is called linear motion. Newton’s First Law of Motion states that an item will continue in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. Linear motion can also be defined as a body travelling in a straight

Momentum is the outcome of a particle’s mass and velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity, which possesses both magnitude and direction. According to Isaac Newton’s second equation of motion, the time rate at which momentum changes equals the force acting on the particle. Momentum: According to Newton’s second law, if a constant force operates on

Introduction The linear momentum of a particle is also known as the product of the mass of the particle and the velocity of that particle. It is a vector quantity. Conservation of linear momentum is an essential principle in physics and other sciences. For example, when a ball is thrown horizontally into the air, the

Spring is a deformable item that may be distorted by force and then return to its original shape once the force has been removed. The strain experienced by most materials when a small amount of tension is applied by the tightness of the chemical bonds inside the substance. The chemical structure of the material and

Any scientific law indicating that a specific physical quantity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source with that physical quantity is known as an inverse-square law. Geometric dilution related to point-source radiation into three-dimensional space can be considered as the main reason. Inverse Square Law The inverse square law indicates the intensity

Introduction  Instantaneous velocity, sometimes known as just velocity, is the number that informs us how quickly an item is travelling somewhere along its route. If two places on a path are separated by a significant amount of time (and hence by a large amount of distance), this is the average velocity between them. It is
