How to Study

• Follow review guideline below.
• Review the in-class, homework, and multiple choice exercises. This includes the calculus problems and in-class clicker questions.
• Review the PowerPoint for these chapters above. PowerPoint files can be downloaded from the course home page.

Chapter 10 - Newton's Laws

• Section 10.1 - Analysis of Motion
  • Displacement
  • Distance
  • Average Velocity
  • Instantaneous Velocity
  • Speed
  • Acceleration
  • Instantaneous Acceleration
  • Figure 10.4 and 10.5
  • Memorize Equations 10-2, 5, 19, 24, 25
• Section 10.3 - Forces
  • Memorize Equation 10-32
  • Forces of Nature
    1. Strong nuclear Force
    2. Weak Nuclear Force
    3. Electromagnetic Force
    4. Gravitational Force
    5. Friction (Static, Kinetic, Air Drag)
    6. Spring Force
• Section 10.4 - Newton's First Law
  • First Law - Law of Inertia
  • Bodies remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless a net force acts on it.
• Section 10.5 - Newton's Second Law
  • Second Law - F=ma
  • "A non-zero net force will cause a mass to accelerate."
  • Review Examples 10.4 and 10.5
• Section 10.6 - Newton's Third Law
  • Third Law - Action-Reaction
  • For every action force there is always an equal and opposite reaction force.
  • Review Examples 10.7
• Section 10.8 - Example Applications of Newton's Laws
  • Review Examples 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, 10.13,
• Review these problems at the end of this chapter: 10.1 through 10.9. Some of these problems appear in the homework assignments.
