Newton's first law
A body will remain at rest or continue to move with a constant velocity unless acted on by a resultant force.
1 of 28
Newton's second law.
The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the resultant force and takes place in the direction of the force.
2 of 28
Newton's third law.
When two objects interact, they each exert equal but opposite forces upon the other during the interaction.
3 of 28
Ohm's law.
The potential difference across a conductor is directly proportional to the current in the across the component as long at it's temperature remains constant.
4 of 28
Archimedes' principles
The upthrust on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of fluid displaced.
5 of 28
Hooke's law
The forced applied is directly proportional to the extension of the spring unless the proportionality is exceeded
6 of 28
Superconductivity
A phenomenon in which the the resistivity of a material falls to almost zero.
7 of 28
Terminal velocity
The constant speed reached by an object when drag force is equal to the weight.
