REFLECTION
Do you know how to find the net force on a body? Can you draw free-body diagrams? Can you find the components of a force along given axes? Can you find the magnitude and direction of a force given its components? Can you identify forces which make a Newton third law pair? Can you solve problems with Newtonâs second law? Can you solve problems in which frictional forces are present? Can you solve problems involving forces and accelerations in a variety of situations? Do you understand why in circular motion a force directed towards the centre is necessary? Can you solve problems with circular motion?
