Newton's second law of motion states that rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to applied force and takes place in the same direction as the applied for..

Resultant Force - Any object can be made to move by the application of force. Many forces can act simultaneously on a body. For example, several people can jointly move a boulder but a strong person can move the same boulder all by himself. That is, the force applied by the strong man pro..

A cricket ball and a tennis ball are moving with a constant velocity v. You have to apply more force to stop the cricket ball than you have to apply to stop the tennis ball, since the mass of the cricket ball is more than that of the tennis ba..

Momentum - A cricket ball and a tennis ball are moving with a constant velocity v. You have to apply more force to stop the cricket ball than you have to apply to stop the tennis ball, since the mass of the cricket ball is more than that of the tennis ba..

Newton's Second Law of Motion - Newton's second law of motion states that rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to applied force and takes place in the same direction as the applied for..

Question: Why does a passenger standing in a bus move forward when the brakes are applied? Answer: A passenger standing in a bus move forward when the brakes are applied due to inertia of motion..

S.I unit of thrust is Newton (N). Now let us see whether there is a relation between the force applied (thrust) and the area on which it is acti..

Force And Motion - A vegetable vendor applies force to push the cart, a driver applies force either to stop the car or to change the speed or direction of motion and a football player kicks the ball to set it in motion. In all the above examples, the force applied on a..

In the beginning of this chapter, we have defined the force as an external agent, which changes the direction of motion, speed or shape of the body. All along we were discussing only about the forces acting at a point on a body. Let us now consider the forces acting over an area. Suppose you have t..

The change of state from the gaseous form to the liquid form is called condensation. It is also called liquefaction. A good example of this process is that of water vapour in atmosphere condensing to form rain. By applying pressure to a gas the particles come closer and start condensing t..
