Lecture

Newton's Laws: Inertia and Gravitation

Description

This lecture covers Newton's first law of motion, the principle of inertia, which states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. It also delves into the concept of gravitation, explaining how masses attract each other according to the universal law of gravitation.
