Q

What is the formula for Newton’s Law of Gravitational Pull??

A

Fg = G x M1 x M2/D(Squared)
***Because G is so small, we will delete it for this course,
thus Fg = M1 x M2/D(Squared)

Q

What does the G stand for in Newton’s Law of Gravitational Pull?

A

G = a gravitational constant value

-Extremely small value, we will delete it from this course

Q

What is Newton’s 1st law?

A

The Law of Inertia
-A body in motion or at rest tends to stay in motion or at rest respectively, until it is acted upon by some net outside force.

Q

What is Newton’s 2nd Law?

A

The law of Acceleration (F=MA)
-A change in a body’s momentum (momentum = MV) will occur in the same direction as, and is proportional to, the force that caused the change. Also, any observed change in momentum will be inversely related to the body’s mass.
