  2. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's laws are often stated in terms of point or particle masses, that is, bodies whose volume is negligible. This is a reasonable approximation for real bodies when the motion of internal parts can be neglected, and when the separation between bodies is much larger than the size of each.

  3. Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophiæ_Naturalis...

    Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (English: The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy) [1] often referred to as simply the Principia (/ p r ɪ n ˈ s ɪ p i ə, p r ɪ n ˈ k ɪ p i ə /), is a book by Isaac Newton that expounds Newton's laws of motion and his law of universal gravitation.

  4. Newton's cradle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_cradle

    This and Newton's law for motion (=) are applied to each ball, giving five simple but interdependent differential equations that can be solved numerically. When the fifth ball begins accelerating , it is receiving momentum and energy from the third and fourth balls through the spring action of their compressed surfaces.

  5. Newtonian dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian_dynamics

    However, in mathematics Newton's laws of motion can be generalized to multidimensional and curved spaces. Often the term Newtonian dynamics is narrowed to Newton's second law m a = F {\displaystyle \displaystyle m\,\mathbf {a} =\mathbf {F} } .

  6. Bucket argument - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_argument

    Isaac Newton's rotating bucket argument (also known as Newton's bucket) is a thought experiment that was designed to demonstrate that true rotational motion cannot be defined as the relative rotation of the body with respect to the immediately surrounding bodies.

  7. De motu corporum in gyrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_motu_corporum_in_gyrum

    Newton did acknowledge some prior work of others, including Ismaël Bullialdus, who suggested (but without demonstration) that there was an attractive force from the Sun in the inverse square proportion to the distance, and Giovanni Alfonso Borelli, who suggested (again without demonstration) that there was a tendency towards the Sun like ...

  8. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    Classical mechanics is fundamentally based on Newton's laws of motion. These laws describe the relationship between the forces acting on a body and the motion of that body. They were first compiled by Sir Isaac Newton in his work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, which was first published on July 5, 1687. Newton's three laws are:

  9. Norton's dome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norton's_dome

    Notice in the second case that the particle appears to begin moving without cause and without any radial force being exerted on it by any other entity, apparently contrary to both physical intuition and normal intuitive concepts of cause and effect, yet the motion is still entirely consistent with the mathematics of Newton's laws of motion so ...
