Newton's Laws: Crash Course Physics #5
I'm sure you've heard of Isaac Newton and maybe of some of his laws. Like, that thing about "equal and opposite reactions" and such. But what do his laws mean? And how do they help us understand the world around us? In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini talks to us about just that.

They don't have to teach behavior, why won't they be better. Try being a teacher for a day in your life and you will have a different perspective. I love teaching my content but I can't teach it fun when a bunch of kids are talking, arguing with each other or getting out of their seats which erupts in laughter. Once behavior is taught teaching becomes easier.

I've gotta say, after watching this series so far, I'm happy they have Dr Somara as the host. Her voice is nice to listen to, and her delivery of the material is engaging. I had to study basic wavelength physics in college for part of my Speech Pathology degree, and I found the course to be a bit dull. I wonder how it will be if and when they discuss it here.

Eeeeeh, I have an issue with how you describe the reason that the action and reaction forces don't cancel out. It is less about the difference between the sleigh vs the force on the ground and more about the fact that the forces are acting on different objects. Consider an astronaut pushing another astronaut in the depth of space. Each astronaut experiences an equal and opposite force, and there are NO OTHER FORCES acting on them, yet they still accelerate. Why? Because while the forces are equal and opposite, they are acting on _different objects_. You can pick up the mug, in spite of the equal and opposite reaction force, because the reaction force isn't acting on the same object. If force 1 is on object A, and force 2 is on object B, the fact that they're equal and opposite is irrelevant. They can't cancel if they're acting on different objects. The action force is object A acting on object B, the reaction is object B acting on object A. Each of these forces is free to induce acceleration on their respective objects.

And used to form equations in 3D space with vectors, with advanced calculus, in Static and Dynamic physics in Engineering. What I was saying was, when I see any basic physics, I always think back to these courses. And also Relativity and Quantum physics. Which I dont even think is mandatory to take anymore where Im from, for Civil Eng at the Uni I was at, but that was 12 years ago 🤷♀️.. Idk why u assume Im lying 🤦♀️
Okay, so Newton went and stopped a cow and got his first law: An object continues to be in a state of rest or motion unless acted upon. Then he gave the cow a little bit of force and then the cow said 'Ma' and so F = Ma Then he kicked the cow and here comes the third law. The cow kicked him back. This is how I remembered these laws.
Excellent presentation. Thanks for being more organized and slowing down the talking.
