Isaac Newton was born in Woolsthorpe, England, was a Physicist and Mathematician who devel-
oped the principles of modern physics, including the laws of motion, and is credited as one of the
great minds of the 17th century. In 1687, he published his most acclaimed work, Philosophiae Nat-
uralis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), which has been
called the single most influential book on physics. In 1705, he was knighted by Queen Anne of
England, making him Sir Isaac Newton.
It states that an object will not change its motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. If it is
at rest, it will stay at rest. If it is in motion, it will remain at the same velocity.
Inertia Equation
The quatitative form of a force is
F = ma
Hence, for an object of mass m, the force that is needed to change acceleration by a unit of a rest
is m × a. Thus, for a given force, the greater the mass of an object, the lesser the acceleration it
acquires and vice versa.
Problem: How much force is needed to prevent a body of mass 15kg from falling?
Solution:
F = ma
= (15kg)(9.81m/s2 )
= 147.15N
It states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on
the object and inversely proportional on the mass of an object.
Problem: Calculate the force needed to accelerate an object with a mass of 5kg by 4m/s2 .

Problem: A cat of mass 5kg jumps on a dining table of mass 30 kg. As the cat walks around
on the table, what is the average force that the table applies to the cat?
Solution:
F = ma
= (5kg)(9.81m/s2 )
= 49.05N
Problem: A book exerts a force of 3N downwards into a chair that exerts a force of 6N downwards
to the floor. What is the total force that the floor exerts upward on the chair?
Solution:
FT = F1 + F2
= 3N + 6N
= 9N
Terminologies:
Work - is the product between the force and the distance. It is a measure of energy transfer that
occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force at least part of which is applied
in the direction of the displacement.
Energy - ability to do work.
Joule (J) - mks unit of work and energy, named after the English Physicist, James Prescott
Joule equivalent to a N ewton − meter (Nm), or kg − m2 /s2 .
erg - cgs system unit of work equal to 1 dyne-centimeter. Note: 1erg = 0.0000001J = 10−7 J
Newton - is a force necessary to provide a mass of 1 kg with an acceleration of 1m/s2 .
Law of Conservation of Energy - is a law of Science that states that energy is never created or
destroyed. It is only changed from the state to another.
Problem: A baseball player throws a ball with a force of 10N. The ball travels 20m. What is
the total work?
Solution:
W =F ×d
= 10N × 20m
= 200J
1. Chemical Energy - comes from atoms and molecules and how they interact.
3. Gravitational Energy - large objects such as the Earth and Sun creates gravity.
4. Heat Energy - also known as thermal energy. It comes from molecules of different temperatures
interacting.
7. Nuclear Energy - huge amounts of nuclear energy can be generated by splitting atoms.
P E = mgh
= (2kg)(9.81m/s2 )(0.4m)

Momentum is a measurement of mass in motion. It is the product of the mass and velocity. Its
SI unit is kg.m/s.
p = mv
Impulse is the product of the average force and the time interval during which the force acts. Its
SI unit is kg.m/s.
I = F ∆t = ∆p = pf − pi
Problem: A freight train moves due north with a speed of 1.4 m/s. The mass of the train is
4.5 × 105 kg. How fast would a 1800-kg automobile have to be moving due north to have the same
momentum?
Solution:
Note that
ptrain = pauto = 630, 000kg.m/s
Solving for the velocity of the automobile
Problem: What is the impulse of an object that collides with the wall and stops after collision if
the 2-kg object travels with a velocity of 10m/s before it hits the?
Solution:
I = ∆p

= m(vf − vi )
= (2kg)(0 − 10m/s)
= −20kg.m/s
Collision - refers to the mutual action of the molecules, atoms and etc., when they encounter one
another.
2. Inelastic Collision - is a collision which does not conserve kinetic energy. Some kinetic
energy is converted into heat energy, sound energy, and so forth.
3. Completely or Perfectly Inelastic Collision - is the collision in which the objects stick
together afterward. In such collisions the kinetic energy loss is maximum.
2. Design a resonant circuit with a loaded Q of 20 at a center frequency of 100 MHz that will
operate between a source resistance of 50Ω and a load resistance of 2000Ω. Use the tapped-C
approach and assume that inductor Q is 100 at 100M Hz.
3. Design a top-L coupled two-resonator tuned circuit to meet the following requirements:
Assume that inductors are available that have unloaded Q of 85 at the frequency of interest.
Finally, use a tapped-C transformer to present an effective source resistance (Rs0 ) of 1000
ohms to the filter.
