Laws of Motion and Circular-Motion
Formulated the
Law of Motion
The law of motions
describes the
relationship of
force acting on
body and the force
which gave of the
motion.
NEWTON’S FIRST LAW OF
MOTION:
LAW OF INERTIA
“An object at rest stays
at rest, tends to stay at
rest and an object in
motion with same
speed and in the same
direction unless acted
upon by an external net
force”
GALILEO’S EXPERIMENT
EQUILIBRIUM
If the net force is equal to ZERO.
TWO KINDS OF EQUILIBRIUM
STATIC EQUILIBRIUM
Equilibrium of those objects that are at rest.
NEWTON’S SECOND LAW OF
MOTION:
LAW OF ACCELERATION

Sample Problem
A person with a mass of 75 kg is
accelerated to 3 m/s2. How much
force was applied to him?
GIVEN: SOLUTION:
m = 75 kg F = ma
a = 3 m/s² F = (75 kg) (3 m/s²)
R: F = ?
F= 225 kg m/s² or
EQUATION: F = ma F = 225 N
GIVEN: SOLUTION:
a = 2 m/s² 𝐹

A 3 kg cart being pushed by a man
speeds up from 2m/s to 4 m/s within
5 seconds. How much force is
exerted by the man if the cart has a
5kg box?
EQUATION 1:
GIVEN: 𝑉𝑓 −𝑉𝑖
a=
m = 3 kg + 5 kg = 8kg 𝑡
V₁ = 2 m/s EQUATION 2:
V₂ = 4 m/s F = ma
t = 5 sec.
R: = a? and F?
SOLUTION 1: SOLUTION 2:
𝑉𝑓 −𝑉𝑖 F = ma
a=

F = (8 kg) (0.40 m/s²)
a = 4 m/s – 2 m/s
5s F = 3.20 kg m/s²
