Okay, so with that, if you write the right forces,
-
you will be just fine.
-
You will be able to solve all the problems we have in mechanics.
-
I'm going to now start doing simple problems in mechanics.
-
They will start out simple and,
-
as usual, they will get progressively more difficult.
-
Let's start with our first triumph will be motion in 1D.
-
Here is some object, it's 5 kilograms
-
and I apply 10 Newtons.
-
Someone says, "What's the acceleration?"
-
Everyone knows it is 10 over 5 equals 2.

Now we know
