Newton's Laws of Motion

Limits of Classical Mechanic

Classical Mechanics is the formulations of physics developed by Newton (1642-1727), Lagrange(1736-1813), and Hamilton(1805-1865).

It may be used to describe the motion of objects which are not moving at high speeds (0.1[math] c[/math]) nor are microscopically small ( [math]10^{-9} m[/math]).

The laws are formulated in terms of space, time, mass, and force:

Cartesian, Spherical, and Cylindrical coordinate systems are commonly used to describe three-dimensional space.
