|    Newton's Third Law and Inertia    |
|    05 Apr 25 20:31:24    |
      From: fortunati.luigi@gmail.com              Newton's third law says that if body A exerts a force on body B, body B       reacts with an equal and opposite force against body A.              Newton, speaking of inertia, says: "A body exerts this force [inertia]       only, when another force, impressed upon it, endeavors to change its       condition".              It seems that he is talking about exactly the same forces.              If not, what differences are there between the two?              Luigi Fortunati              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
