    2 questions regarding circular motion and Newton's 1st Law

    Thanks so much! Can you also tell me more (or send me to some article) about this brief unbalanced force that meets my lemon and makes it lose the magnitude in velocity, makes it go to rest? If I dropped something as heavy as the upward force of the water into the water, when it hits the...

    2 questions regarding circular motion and Newton's 1st Law

    Wow, thank you all! You are great, very helpful. 1 is clear for be now, thanks. But 2 still puzzles me. So when I drop the lemon, it accelerates towards the table. When it hits the table, the lemon accelerates upwards - in the opposite direction from it's velocity direction. That is why it...

    Where to Start: A Beginner's Guide to Learning Physics as an Adult

    Hey, I'm an adult who finally realized that physics is great and tries to recall (or rather learn for the first time) what he learned (or rather was supposed to learn) at the school. I've been reading some basic things around since it's kind of hard to figure out where to start this journey...

It's not really a homework question, I'm just trying to understand the laws here. 1. I know that if a...
