Newton's laws of motion are 3 physical laws that, together, lay the foundation for classical mechanics. They describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion. These laws have been expressed in several ways, over nearly three centuries and can be summarized as follows

First law: An object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force.

Second law: The vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration a of the object: F = ma.

Third law: When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

In this course, you get a deep dive of all these concepts and how to use them in solving numerical problems with ease.

The concepts covered are -

newtons' first law of motion - bodies in motion and rest #1

newton's 2nd law of motion: net force = mass x acceleration #2

what is weight, gravitational force and normal reaction in f = ma? #3

what exactly is tension in a chord? application in newton's laws #4

newton's 3rd law of motion: making sense of action and reaction #5

I work for 3M but my love for physics and teaching has been lifelong. Here are my 8 suggestions on how you can get good at the subject-

1. You will need to make consistent effort. Start by learning the theory well before you do numerical

2. Visualize Physics- Making mental pictures of a concept as you study them and imagining the possibilities can really speed up the understanding of it. E.g. if you are reading static and dynamic friction, imagine what is happening to a block placed on an inclined plane as the incline is increasing.

3. Try to absorb the contents of a tutorial in small chunks. Pause and ponder over what you read. Visualize and scribble on a paper

4. Understand the derivation of important equations - Often the derivation itself gives great clarity around the topic and the numerical problems you will attempt.

5. Learn to deconstruct a numerical problem. Making neat diagrams and putting all the available information around it can accelerate you towards writing the correct equations and therefore the answers

6. Be disciplined about not "rushing through" when solving a numerical problem. In other words, do not jump steps while doing a problem.

7. Get the basic understanding of math, particular integral and differential calculus, in place. It will be required for solving numerical problems

8. Revisit the chapter after you have completed numerical. You'll find your understanding of the topic improve several notches

Most importantly, be patient, persist and practice!

Wishes,
Vishesh

"Vishesh Sir has a unique way of teaching. He makes it very interesting for us by explaining with lot of practical examples. Takes utmost interest in making the subject clear and simple. Is always ready to solve our queries. Not just teaches but also guides us with regard to our future inclinations & prospective careers. Being an Engineer and an MBA from top universities, he has a great insight with regard to what a student should look into, to build a career. The ease with which he handles this and support our learning process, I feel it is a great advantage and a matter of privilege to be tutored by him. His ability to read the minds of us students with regard to the apprehensions that we do get from time to time & providing crystal clear solutions is a great advantage we students do derive from being part of his class. Another very important aspect is that he is a hard task master. He regularly prepares mock tests and inspire us to take them with full seriousness. As a result we do get to practice & prepare a lot. He allows us to experiment, explore and apply our knowledge into new areas. Under his guidance, I have started liking the subject much more and do not take it as a burden. I am convinced, I will get his best advice even after I have finished my school studies and would be stepping into the engineering college and beyond that as well. I am sure, I and many students like me will stand to benefit a lot by studying under him. A big thanks to him for everything. "

"The lesson taken up in this video is one that is relatively harder to grasp and not taught very well in school. This video brought out the concept of rotational motion in a very simple and understandable manner. Real life examples, analogies and visual representations shown in the video help enormously in providing an accurate perspective to students. Also, the numericals chosen and worked out are helpful not just to solve similar questions in exams, but help in understanding the physics behind common phenomena that occur in real life. All in all this lesson was taught excellently. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to grasp the fundamentals while obtaining practical knowledge. Also, if you do not enjoy physics it's probably because the basics are not clear to you and you aren't able to visualise things clearly. "
