The first law can be derived from the second law but I don't think the second law can be derived from the third law.

Newton's second law states that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the resultant force and acts in the same direction as the resultant force.

For a constant mass, F = ma

This means that if F (the resultant force) is zero, a (acceleration) is zero. Thus, if the resultant force on a body is zero, a body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line. This is Newton's first law.

Why do you have to divide the two formulas in newtons second law of motion?

This is because two concepts are derived from the newtons second law. First : Force . F = m * a Second : momentum .. p = m * v


What is the purpose of newton's first law when it can be derived from second law?

Newton's first law predicts how objects at rest and in motion will behave. Newton's second law builds on his first law, but does not negate it. Refer to the related link below for more information.


How is the first law of motion mathematically started from the mathematical expression for the second law of motion?

The first law of motion follows from the second, for the case that the net force is zero.


Example of first law of motion?

Newton's second law of motion.


How does Newton's first law derived from Newton's second law?

Newton's First Law of Motion or Newton's First Axiom that states that "Every body continue in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it." cannot be derived from anything else being an axiom. Newton arrived to this postulate by using our given Common Sense.


What is the difference between perpetual motion machines of first kind and perpetual motion machines of the second kind?

Neither first or second kind of perpetual motion machines can be constructed, beacuse their existence violates the first law of Thermodynamics

How can nawtons first law be derived from newtons second law?

The Second Law is Force = Mass times Acceleration. The First Law can be derived from the Second Law by setting the Focre to zero or the Acceleration to zero;. No force = no acceleration; or No acceleration = no force.


Was Aristotle the person that first discussed the momentum-impulse theorem?

NO.There are no specific records as to who discovered the impulse-momentum theorem or when it was discovered. All we know is that it was derived from Newton's Second Law of Motion (F = ma).


How do you derive newton's third law of motion from second law of motion?

You cannot. Newton's third law is independent of the first and second laws.


Why is the acceleration called the second law?

I have never seen it called that before. Perhaps whoever used this name meant that it is a law that applies in our real world - as opposed to any other law which you might make up, but which doesn't apply in our world.
