### 1. Important Definitions (рдорд╣рддреНрд╡рдкреВрд░реНрдг рдкрд░рд┐рднрд╛рд╖рд╛рдПрдБ)

  • Force (рдмрд▓): A pull or push that acts on an object, which may change its state of rest or uniform motion, or change its direction and shape. (рдмрд▓ рд╡рд╣ рдЦрд┐рдВрдЪрд╛рд╡ рдпрд╛ рдзрдХреНрдХрд╛ рд╣реИ рдЬреЛ рдХрд┐рд╕реА рд╡рд╕реНрддреБ рдХреА рд╡рд┐рд░рд╛рдо рдпрд╛ рдПрдХрд╕рдорд╛рди рдЧрддрд┐ рдХреА рдЕрд╡рд╕реНрдерд╛ рдХреЛ рдмрджрд▓рддрд╛ рд╣реИ рдпрд╛ рдмрджрд▓рдиреЗ рдХрд╛ рдкреНрд░рдпрд╛рд╕ рдХрд░рддрд╛ рд╣реИред)
  • Balanced Forces (рд╕рдВрддреБрд▓рд┐рдд рдмрд▓): When equal and opposite forces act on a body simultaneously and the net force is zero, they are called balanced forces. They do not change the state of rest or motion of an object.
  • Unbalanced Forces (рдЕрд╕рдВрддреБрд▓рд┐рдд рдмрд▓): When the resultant of all forces acting on a body is not zero, they are called unbalanced forces. They change the state of motion or shape of the object.
  • Inertia (рдЬрдбрд╝рддреНрд╡): The natural tendency of an object to resist a change in its state of rest or of uniform motion is called inertia. Mass is a measure of inertia. (рд╡рд╕реНрддреБрдУрдВ рдХрд╛ рдЕрдкрдиреА рд╡рд┐рд░рд╛рдо рдЕрд╡рд╕реНрдерд╛ рдпрд╛ рдЧрддрд┐ рдХреА рдЕрд╡рд╕реНрдерд╛ рдореЗрдВ рдкрд░рд┐рд╡рд░реНрддрди рдХрд╛ рд╡рд┐рд░реЛрдз рдХрд░рдиреЗ рдХрд╛ рдЧреБрдг рдЬрдбрд╝рддреНрд╡ рдХрд╣рд▓рд╛рддрд╛ рд╣реИред)
  • Momentum (рд╕рдВрд╡реЗрдЧ): The momentum of an object is defined as the product of its mass ($m$) and velocity ($v$). It is a vector quantity. (рдХрд┐рд╕реА рд╡рд╕реНрддреБ рдХрд╛ рд╕рдВрд╡реЗрдЧ рдЙрд╕рдХреЗ рджреНрд░рд╡реНрдпрдорд╛рди рдФрд░ рд╡реЗрдЧ рдХрд╛ рдЧреБрдгрдирдлрд▓ рд╣реЛрддрд╛ рд╣реИред)

### 2. Newton's Laws of Motion (рдиреНрдпреВрдЯрди рдХреЗ рдЧрддрд┐ рдХреЗ рдирд┐рдпрдо)

First Law of Motion (рдЧрддрд┐ рдХрд╛ рдкреНрд░рдердо рдирд┐рдпрдо - Galileo's Law of Inertia)

  • Statement: An object remains in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change that state by an applied force.
  • Key Concept: Defines Inertia. Heavy objects have more inertia than lighter objects.

Second Law of Motion (рдЧрддрд┐ рдХрд╛ рджреНрд╡рд┐рддреАрдп рдирд┐рдпрдо)

  • Statement: The rate of change of momentum of an object is proportional to the applied unbalanced force in the direction of force.
  • Key Concept: Gives the measure of force.

Third Law of Motion (рдЧрддрд┐ рдХрд╛ рддреГрддреАрдп рдирд┐рдпрдо)

  • Statement: To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
  • Key Concept: Forces always occur in pairs. Action and reaction act on two different bodies.

### 3. Key Formulas & Mathematical Expressions (рдкреНрд░рдореБрдЦ рд╕реВрддреНрд░)

  • Momentum ($p$): $$p = m \times v$$ (Where $p$ = Momentum, $m$ = Mass, $v$ = Velocity) SI Unit: $\text{kg m/s}$ or $\text{kg m s}^{-1}$

  • Change in Momentum: $$\text{Initial Momentum} = m \times u$$ $$\text{Final Momentum} = m \times v$$ $$\text{Change in Momentum} = m(v - u)$$ (Where $u$ = Initial velocity, $v$ = Final velocity)

  • Force ($F$) from Second Law: $$F \propto \frac{m(v - u)}{t}$$ $$F = k \cdot m \cdot a$$ (Where $k = 1$ in SI units, $a = \frac{v - u}{t}$ is acceleration)

    $$\mathbf{F = m \times a}$$ (Force = Mass $\times$ Acceleration) SI Unit of Force: Newton ($\text{N}$) or $\text{kg m/s}^2$

  • Law of Conservation of Momentum (рд╕рдВрд╡реЗрдЧ рд╕рдВрд░рдХреНрд╖рдг рдХрд╛ рдирд┐рдпрдо): When two or more bodies act upon one another, their total momentum remains constant (conserved), provided no external unbalanced force is acting.

    $$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2$$ (Before collision momentum = After collision momentum)


### 4. Important Units (рдорд╣рддреНрд╡рдкреВрд░реНрдг рдорд╛рддреНрд░рдХ)

Physical Quantity (рднреМрддрд┐рдХ рд░рд╛рд╢рд┐)SI Unit (рдПрд╕рдЖрдИ рдорд╛рддреНрд░рдХ)CGS Unit (рд╕реАрдЬреАрдПрд╕ рдорд╛рддреНрд░рдХ)
Mass ($m$)Kilogram ($\text{kg}$)Gram ($\text{g}$)
Velocity ($v$)$\text{m/s}$$\text{cm/s}$
Acceleration ($a$)$\text{m/s}^2$$\text{cm/s}^2$
Momentum ($p$)$\text{kg m/s}$$\text{g cm/s}$
Force ($F$)Newton ($\text{N}$)Dyne ($\text{dyn}$)

(Note: $1 \text{ Newton} = 10^5 \text{ Dyne}$)


### 5. Quick Points to Remember (рдорд╣рддреНрд╡рдкреВрд░реНрдг рдмрд┐рдВрджреБ)

  1. Mass is scalar and constant everywhere; Weight is a force and depends on gravity ($W = mg$).
  2. Seatbelts are worn in cars to prevent the passenger's forward motion due to inertia when brakes are applied suddenly.
  3. A fielder pulls his hands backward while catching a cricket ball to increase the time of catch, which reduces the force of impact (Application of Second Law).
  4. Recoil of a gun and propulsion of rockets are based on Newton's Third Law of Motion and the Law of Conservation of Momentum.
