Newton's Laws of Motion applied in LIFE......

Physics hmm. It was and has never been my favourite subject. During my school days, I realised that having a sound knowledge of the laws of Physics or even memorizing them was never enough. The funny thing is that when you are presented with an exam question, you look at the question carefully and in your mind, you think you understand the question. Besides, you are fairly conversant with the aspects of the physical law on which the question is based. Cool. Okay. Why haven't you solved the question already? lol. The poor results in physics were as a result of students inability to apply the laws during problem solving. Anyway, thank God I didn't not fail Physics.

Some days ago, it occurred to me that I haven't heard anything of Newton's laws of motion, Ohm's law or Coulomb's law in a very long time. So...erm...why did I study physics at school when I obviously do not need it to earn a living? (I am only speaking for myself o) It's not like my manager would ask me why payment has not been received for an invoice and I will respond to her by quoting Newton's Third law of motion. Maybe my response would be thus,  "Ma'am, according to Newton's Third law of motion, when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body. Therefore, we would follow up with the client with a force that relates to the amount of money owed and he would certainly pay for the invoice". LMAO. That would be disastrous to any career!!!

Anyway, what I intend to do with this post, is to bring some of the popular laws of physics to life. FYI, I am not trying to be Miss Smarty Pants. I am just trying to have FUN by proving that knowledge is power and learning something new is never irrelevant.

So let's begin!!

Newton's laws of motion are three physical laws that describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to said forces.

• First law: When viewed in an inertial reference frame, an object either is at rest or moves at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force.

My Interpretation:When you feel you are stagnant (at rest), talk to God. You need his external force in your life. So believe in him and apply the power of positive thinking to move your life forward. Meanwhile, when you are progressing in life, give thanks to Him. Only His external force can affect you as He would not allow them enemies bring you down!!! 

• Second law: The sum of the forces on an object is equal to the total mass of that object multiplied by the acceleration of the object. Thus, F = ma, where F is the net force acting on the object, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration of the object. When a force acts on an object, the object accelerates in the direction of the force. If the mass of an object is held constant, increasing force will increase acceleration. If the force on an object remains constant, increasing mass will decrease acceleration. In other words, force and acceleration are directly proportional, while mass and acceleration are inversely proportional

May the Force be with you (Star Wars fans)

My Interpretation:You would only go as far as your thoughts let you. When you lose hope and become negative in life, you are increasing your mass (hence that's why you have that heavy feeling) and reducing the speed of your progression. Therefore, the more positive you are about life, the more force God would exert in your life and you will receive accelerated blessings for your efforts.

• Third law: When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to that of the first body.

My Interpretation:This is probably the most popular law of physics. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This is a bit similar to the law of Cause and Effect (Karma); What you sow is what you shall reap. You are free to choose your courses of action. However, be ready to face the consequences of your actions whether good or bad. What goes around comes around and if you sow love, happiness, peace and friendship, that is exactly what you will receive. 

Laugh a little

For the sake of emphasis, these are MY interpretations......MY, MINE, MI, NKEM...lol. What I am trying to say is that we are free to have our own respective opinions on subject matters. So if you enjoyed the post, thanks a lot but if didn't......it doesn't matter, really!!!

Thanks for reading.
