ewton mechanics laws cannot be applied when: 1) he speed o the interacting bodies are a raction o the speed o light Einstein s special theory o relativity. ) he interacting bodies are on the scale o the atomic structure Quantum mechanics I. ewton s irst law: I no net orce acts on a body, then the body s velocity cannot change; the body cannot accelerate v = constant in magnitude and direction. - Principle o superposition: when two or more orces act on a body, the net orce can be obtained by adding the individual orces vectorially. - Inertial reerence rame: where ewton s laws hold.

II. ewton s second law: he net orce on a body is equal to the product o the body s mass and its acceleration. net ma (5.1) ma, net, y may, net, ma net, x x z z (5.) - he acceleration component along a given axis is caused only by the sum o the orce components along the same axis, and not by orce components along any other axis. - System: collection o bodies. - External orce: any orce on the bodies inside the system. III. Particular orces: -Gravitational: pull directed towards a second body, normally the Earth mg (5.3) g

- Weight: magnitude o the upward orce needed to balance the gravitational orce on the body due to an astronomical body W mg (5.4) - ormal orce: perpendicular orce on a body rom a surace against which the body presses. mg (5.5) - rictional orce: orce on a body when the body attempts to slide along a surace. It is parallel to the surace and opposite to the motion. -ension: pull on a body directed away rom the body along a massless cord.
