  2. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's third law relates to a more fundamental principle, the conservation of momentum. The latter remains true even in cases where Newton's statement does not, for instance when force fields as well as material bodies carry momentum, and when momentum is defined properly, in quantum mechanics as well.

  4. Reaction (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_(physics)

    One problem frequently observed by physics educators is that students tend to apply Newton's third law to pairs of 'equal and opposite' forces acting on the same object. [5] [6] [7] This is incorrect; the third law refers to forces on two different objects. In contrast, a book lying on a table is subject to a downward gravitational force ...

    English: In this image, Newton's Laws of Motion are shown throughout common occurrences of a soccer match. In the first law, the ball is influenced by the wind, an unbalanced force, causing it to roll. In the second law, the ball is being kicked causing its acceleration to be dependent on the mass of the soccer ball and the net force of the kick.

  7. Lift (force) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(force)

    Newton's third law requires that the air must exert an equal upward force on the wing. An airfoil generates lift by exerting a downward force on the air as it flows past. According to Newton's third law, the air must exert an equal and opposite (upward) force on the airfoil, which is lift. [15] [16] [17] [18]

  9. Torque effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_effect

    Torque effect is an effect experienced in helicopters and single propeller-powered aircraft is an example of Isaac Newton's third law of motion, that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." In helicopters, the torque effect causes the main rotor to turn the fuselage in the opposite direction from the rotor's spin.
