  2. Exact solutions of classical central-force problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_solutions_of...

    In the classical central-force problem of classical mechanics, some potential energy functions () produce motions or orbits that can be expressed in terms of well-known functions, such as the trigonometric functions and elliptic functions. This article describes these functions and the corresponding solutions for the orbits.

    There is a the force due to the weight of the particle (vertical) and the reaction of the slope on the particle (if the particle had spacial dimensions, these two forces would not be collinear and hence a torque would develop). [2] Using a parallelogram, these forces are added vectorially, showing the resultant (double arrow) force. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Classical_central-force_problem

    In classical mechanics, the central-force problem is to determine the motion of a particle in a single central potential field.A central force is a force (possibly negative) that points from the particle directly towards a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem

    The three-body problem is a special case of the n-body problem, which describes how n objects move under one of the physical forces, such as gravity. These problems have a global analytical solution in the form of a convergent power series, as was proven by Karl F. Sundman for n = 3 and by Qiudong Wang for n > 3 (see n -body problem for details).

    A diagram of Central forces. In classical mechanics, a central force on an object is a force that is directed towards or away from a point called center of force. [a] [1]: 93 = = | | ^ where is the force, F is a vector valued force function, F is a scalar valued force function, r is the position vector, ||r|| is its length, and ^ = / ‖ ‖ is the corresponding unit vector.

  9. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    The forces acting on a body add as vectors, and so the total force on a body depends upon both the magnitudes and the directions of the individual forces. [ 23 ] : 58 When the net force on a body is equal to zero, then by Newton's second law, the body does not accelerate, and it is said to be in mechanical equilibrium .
