Reference Frames

Science > Physics > Newton’s Laws of Motion > Reference Frames Before studying Newton’s laws of motion, we shall understand a very important concept of reference frames in this article. Motion is a Relative Concept: Motion is always with respect to the observer. Consider a person A is standing in a train moving in the […]

Concept of Force

Science > Physics > Force > Concept of Force When we push, pull, kick, lift, throw, flick, hit, pick, squeeze, press, inflate, open, close an object we say a force is applied on the object. These actions are nothing but the application of force. Whatever may be the method of application of the force, they […]
