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.
