			I just got home from work, so by brain isnt working right at the moment.  
 
Anyhow... Mass times eceleration equals force 
  
 
 
Physics - Inertia 
 
Newtons Second Law 
 
A property of mass is its resistance to a change of velocity. This is quantified by Newtons second law which says that the acceleration is: 
 
*Proportional to the net external force.  
*Inversely proportional to its mass.  
*In the direction of the force.  
 
In other words 
 
f =ma  
 
*f =net force 
*m=mass 
*a =acceleration 
 
There is also an equivalent for rotation. 
 
T=Ia  
 
*T=torque 
*I=inertia Tensor  
*a =angular acceleration.  
 
 
In plain english...... A body in motion stays in motion, and a body at rest stays at rest.  
 
Anyhow this body needs rest. 
So g night all. Or I should say morning.
