  1. Does Newton's Third law apply to planetary motion?

    1. Yes! Newtons third law is seen in space in many ways. For example, when the force of gravity causes the sun to pull on the earth, earth then pulls on the sun with an equal force. This gravitational pull keeps the planets in orbit.

    1. If you're in a boat with a motor, and traveling up stream, you encounter resistance to your direction of motion from the current. The force of the stream slows down your boat and more force is need to propel the boat forward at the same speed than if you were going down stream and the force of the current was working with you.

  3. What were Einstein's theories, and how do they relate to Newton's three laws?

    1. What we learned from Newton's three laws were that laws of motion and gravity are real. These are the same laws of physics and are identical in the universe and on the earth. Einstein realized the conservation of energy and that it cannot be created or destroyed but only transformed from one type to another type. Newton and Einstein both discovered further how energy is used in different ways.

  4. What can you apply to Newton's second law of motion?

    1. You can apply the movement of any object. Newton’s second law of motion allows for discovering the effect of each force on a single object and projecting its velocity when those forces are applied.

  5. Was the introduction of Newtons three laws met with large resistance, and if so, what did Newton do to overcome these objections?

    1. Newtons laws were not accepted at first, however he conduct various experiments to prove his laws in many different ways, making it difficult to disagree.

  6. If two different sized cars collided with each other would he same net force be transferred from each car?

    1. The car with the more mass would have a more increased net force.
