Document Summary

20-25 questions regarding military and aviation history in midterm exam. History of flight: humans began theorising about flight in the 1600, early aviators emulated birds and built ornithopters. The first law of motion is the law of inertia. An object at rest or in motion will remain at rest or in motion until it is acted upon by an external force. If there are no external forces, the object will continue at its current velocity ore remain at rest. The second law of motion is the law of proportion. If the net external force on any object is not even, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force. The magnitude of acceleration is a direct proportion of the force. The third law of motion is the law of reaction. For every force, there is an equal and opposite reaction in the opposite direction. In this treatise, his made a famous equation.
