Newton’s Law Of Motion And Its Role In Lives

We sometimes wonder what causes movement or how things move. This is covered in Sir Isaac Newton’s Laws Of Motion. This essay will discuss and explain these laws, and show how they can be more relevant to our daily lives than we thought. Isaac Newton had many observations about motion, how things move. These observations he called “Newton’s Law Of Motion”. They are three. They are a bit complicated, but they can be broken down and analyzed individually.

Newton’s first law is that an object must remain in motion unless it is moved by an outside force. This means that an object will not move or accelerate if it isn’t subject to any force. If a ball is on the sidewalk, but it isn’t moving, and I don’t push/pull it or the wind doesn’t blow it, it will remain at rest. The object will move if either I or the wind are present. The ball will not move if we do nothing. Let’s take it one step further. Imagine that I removed all gravity and air pressure from the earth and created a ball. The ball would then move in a straight line unless I acted on it. The ball would continue moving in straight lines for an eternity unless some other force intervened. As if gravity pulled it back. This is an example of uniform motion for an object if it were not acted upon by another force. Let’s now look at an object that is still in motion. The ball in gravity is the same example I will use, but from a different perspective. So, what if gravity and pressure were not there? The ball is placed in the middle of the room. The ball wouldn’t move or stay still unless gravity pulled on it. The ball would then be moved or disturbed. Newton’s second law is that an object will accelerate if it is subject to a net force. This net force is proportional to its magnitude and in the same direction. It is also proportional to its mass. If they were moving in the same direction, we needed to add them, while if they were moving in opposite directions, we needed to subtract them. That’s how you get net forces. The sum of all forces that act on an object is called net force. This is the 2nd law.

Newton’s last and third law states that for every action there is an equally and opposing reaction. This is a simple law but many people misunderstand it. Many people make this simple law complex when it’s not necessary. This is a law that we live by every day. Walking is an example. One force is the foot on a sidewalk. Our foot is the same reaction. The sidewalk gives us back the opposite force. This interaction, and the segregation of these forces, gives us the ability to move. Packaging is an important aspect of our lives these days. What can people do if the packaging for a product they have purchased is damaged? It’s possible to return it. This is an essential part of our lives. Packaging a product is not difficult, but it requires science and math to ensure it succeeds. Take, for example, egg packaging. This is a very complex one. Each egg is covered by a dome-shaped outer shell. The design of the egg’s casing requires extensive math. Food packaging is used to protect the product during shipping and storage. Why should there be any space between the egg casing and the shell? Here’s an example. The egg will break if the plastic is too close to the egg. If the container was too close to an egg, then the eggs may break if it is hit by something. It is amazing that the packaging company leaves a space between eggs and plastic. Eggs are difficult to crack because they have this shell. This would prevent eggs from being broken if anything bumps into them or hits them. Why? They did so because if the items were not separated by a measurement, they might damage the plastic but not break the egg. Plastic is more durable and lasts longer than other packaging systems.

Now that I have explained Newton’s Laws of Motion, I can tell you how they were used in a school project.

As students, we were given the task of creating a protective device to keep an egg safe from being dropped over a distance exceeding ten feet. Newton’s first law describes why our egg broke and fell. The egg broke after Mr. Mayo dropped its contents. Newton’s first law is that objects will not move unless some force interrupts the uniform motion. Therefore, Mr. Mayo’s egg would have fallen straight down once another object came into contact with it. It is implied that the third law applies because the egg fell as it says. It means that the egg fell to the floor by its force. This caused the egg to burst. This is how Newton’s laws om Motion apply to egg drop projects.

Newton’s laws are fundamental. These laws are important in every day life. They can be used to drop, move, and simply walk. They are not difficult, even though they may seem complicated. Newton’s laws sum up life. Every living thing has motion. This is what makes these laws so important.
