Laws of Motion ↔ Work, Energy & Power

  • Work done by friction = f_k × d (negative work, removes kinetic energy)
  • Impulse-Momentum Theorem ↔ Work-Energy Theorem: both relate cause (force) to effect (change in state)
  • Conservation of momentum ↔ Conservation of energy in elastic collisions — both apply simultaneously

Laws of Motion ↔ Circular Motion

  • Centripetal force IS Newton's Second Law applied to circular motion: F = mv2mv^{2}/r = ma_c
  • Banking angle derivation uses Newton's second law in two directions simultaneously

Laws of Motion ↔ Gravitation

  • Apparent weight concept links to gravitational field strength
  • Weightlessness in orbit: gravitational force provides centripetal force — not a contradiction but an application of Newton's laws

Laws of Motion ↔ Fluid Mechanics

  • Viscosity is friction for fluids; terminal velocity occurs when drag force balances gravity (F_net = 0 → a = 0 → constant velocity — Newton's First Law)

Laws of Motion ↔ Rotational Motion

  • Torque τ = Iα is the rotational analogue of F = ma
  • Angular momentum L = Iω is the rotational analogue of linear momentum p = mv
  • Conservation of angular momentum mirrors conservation of linear momentum (when τ_ext = 0)

Laws of Motion ↔ Thermodynamics

  • Pressure in kinetic theory derived from Newton's Second Law applied to molecular collisions with container walls: P = F/A = Δp\Delta p/(A·Δt\Delta t)
