Mass vs Weight
•
•
•
•
Mass = measure of inertia
(resistance to change in motion)
Weight = force
(caused by gravity, affected by
both planet size and mass of
body)
Mass vs Weight
• Weight in pounds
• Mass in kilograms
• Mass in slugs
• Weight in Newtons

Law: Law of Inertia
• A body at rest will remain at
rest
• And
• A body in motion will remain in
motion
• Unless…
• Acted upon by an outside force

2nd Law:
Law of Acceleration
• The acceleration of a body is:
• Directly proportional to force
• Inversely proportional to mass
Remember: acceleration is
change in speed

Weight on other Planets
• Weigh in
3rd Law:
Law of Reaction
•For every force on one body,
•There is an equal
• but opposite force
• on another body.
3rd Law:
Law of Reaction
•For every action,
•There is an equal but
opposite reaction.
3rd Law:
Law of Reaction
•Forces always
•Come in pairs
•Equal in size
•Opposite in direction
•Acting on 2 different bodies
