Newton’s Laws
[Verse 1]
In physics there’s a law that objects moving
Keep moving until forces make them slow
Of all the laws in the world of physics
This one you should surely know
[Verse 2]
A second law was added by Sir Isaac
Resultant force produces change, in fact
An object changes speed or its direction
In every case, net forces act
[Verse 3]
His third law deals with objects that are touching
Well, actually they never touch, you see
But still they push the same on one another
How can that be?
How can that be?
[Verse 4]
And each and every mass throughout creation
Attracts thе other ones with gravity
Decrеasing with the square of separation
A matter of Geometry
[Verse 5]
This law for with Sir Isaac is most famous
Explains the paths of planets 'round the sun
And why the tides flow ceaselessly on beaches
Join Earth and sky, stunned everyone
[Verse 6]
Two hundred years and more these laws were tested
In every time and place they checked out right
Until young Einstein dared to dream of moving
As fast as light
Oh, he was bright
[Verse 7]
Then Niels Bohr took a look at glowing atoms
And could they little suns and planets be?
But found that changes they could not make smoothly
In radius, or energy
[Verse 8]
And soon it seemed that chance controls electrons
That probability rules everywhere
Although Einstein never found this to his liking
Does God throw dice?
Doesn't he care?
[Verse 9]
Today we see that Newton’s Laws stand firmly
For everything we deal with day and night
Above the realm of atoms and electrons
And well below the speed of light
[Verse 10]
So learn them well, and they'll solve all your problems
Well, not all, but certainly a lot
All problems you might have involving forces
Remember well
Forget them not
