Physics can answer a lot of question. If Newton's third law is true then how does a horse pull a cart. The cart should pull the horse back with the same force.
Well, when the horse pulls the cart, it is true the the cart also pulls the horse with the same force. However, the dynamics are a little more complex. Well does not mean that the force that the horse exerts on the cart has got cancelled. The cart will continue to to experience the pull and so would the horse from the cart being pulled. In a way they are 2 separate forces, each acting on separate object.
This is the reason problems around Newton’s laws of motion are solved by using “free body diagrams”. So if you see the horse in “isolation”, the horse is pulled in the direction of the cart (say right ), the horse itself is also applying a “force” towards the left. As a result, the net force (force vector to the left and force vector to the right) produce a net force vector that makes the horse and the system move
Newton's laws of motion include three laws Newton's first law, Newton's second law, Newton's third law, that in conjunction are rock bed of classical mechanics. So you can see in the above example, how they help us understand the relationship between a mass or a body and the forces acting upon it and the motion in response to those forces.
The second part of this course introduces you to the following concepts- 1. Center of mass (com) for a system of particles , 2.The velocity and acceleration of the center of mass and 3. Linear momentum for a single particle and a system of particles We will learn how center of mass of a system of masses can represent the system as a point. We also discuss the principle of conservation of linear momentum. We will also use the concept of conservation of linear momentum to study collisions in one and two dimensions and understand how momentum of rockets and the exhaust gases changes with time
Some of the most interesting problems in Physics are found in Mechanics. Most of these problems are around inclined planes, falling objects, frictional forces (static friction and dynamic friction), mass acceleration, velocity etc. Section 2 of this course is a compilation of such interesting problems and how they can be solved using Newton's laws of motion. The course makes use of calculus in certain places
Whats different about my physics courses:
When I create content for the lessons, I think deeply around the areas where students struggle and feel confused. My lessons tackle these parts in depth. Also, I believe visual representation of various ideas makes a lot of impact. The lessons have visuals and animations that are thought through quite deeply
And most importantly, I make myself available personally to answer questions that a student who has enrolled may have
My physics students wrote this to me
Bobbie Smith: Amazing explanations, I really learned a lot. Thank you.
Satyam Jha: amazing!! i could not understand vectors in my class but here it is very easy to understand Thanks a lot!!
Csaba: I learned new ideas of approaches. I'm looking to try them in my professional practice as a teacher.Thanks! :)
Fernando P. Radaza: It help me a lot to understand better about Physics of Work, Power & Energy.
Chamara Dilshan: it's good, explaining every small thing ,it's good to start physics beginners
Onofrio : The lessons given by the teacher are very interesting! Excellent course!
Simaran: Very deep understanding of the subject Shiva Very knowledgeable and sounds very nice and helpful
Gallina: Excellent the lessons held by the teacher with exhaustive explanations and well illustrated. Well done course! Smith: Great course.The presentation is very clear. Thank you.
Pawan Kumar: The way to teaching us is amazing with all diagrams
Samit This course has a lot of good content and very well presented. Thank you
Dani: It was concise and consequent. The exercises were good exposed and explained. Simply excellent. I promise, that i will use some ideas in my every day practice in my classroom. I'm also teaching physics, but in Hungarian. I finished this course to improve my skills, first of all in interesting approaches, and foreign language skills as well. This course was exactly what I expected!
