Isaac Newton, the father of
mechanics, is one of the most important scientists who ever lived, changing the
standards by which scientists think today. His genius in mathematics and mechanics
is exemplified by his creation of calculus to explain observations of the world
around him. In addition, his laws of motion opened the door to progressive new
thinking, enlightening the minds of thousands to the nature of things. His laws
of motion make up the foundation for which dynamic meteorology exists.
1) Law of Inertia—a body
at rest or in motion will tend to stay that way until acted upon by a net
external force.
2) Law of Acceleration—a change
in motion relates directly to a force trying to move it.
F = ma or F = ρg
3) Action-Reaction Law—for every
action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
