Newton’s Law Generalized after 337 years
Newton’s third law: Reaction = – Action
The Generalized Third Law :
Reaction = – Action (K shape x K composition x K target x K other )

Anyone may give suggestions or ask questions related to Newton’s Three
Laws of Motion, I strongly feel it is time to add nobilities to the axioms or
laws of the legend of Sir Isaac Newton, who initiated physics as a subject in
1686 in the Principia. The queries may please be asked or raised ONLY by
website form or Email ajoy.plus@gmail.com.
For transparency, the questions will be replied to and posted in the
‘Author-Reply’ section of www.Newton99.com; thus interactions will be in
the public domain so that others may also contribute. Finally, it scientific
logic and the opinion of wider scientific will prevail. We can only put forth
our ideas.
It is an open forum for interactions and learning about Newton’s
Three Laws of Motion. It is requested that before asking questions
sufficient information may be gathered from the relevant sections as given
in the website or from any textbook, valid scientific document, etc.
Nowadays Newton’s Principia may be freely downloaded in any
village or metropolitan city of the world, and it must be consulted to see the
original ideas of Newton.
All genuine questions will be replied to here along with the name
and address (so must be real) of the contributor.
I am sure after a few exchanges of ideas from either side, there
will be a repetition of questions, and a state of saturation will be achieved
soon.
Sample Question /Query /Suggestion
Q.1 What caused you to give a generalized form of 338-year-old
Newton’s Third Law of Motion?
Ajay Sharma: Consider freely falling and rebounding basketball and rugby
ball (same mass, and composition, obviously of different shapes i.e. sphere
and oval). Both balls have the same action (Action = Force = mg = 1kg x
9.8ms2
= 9.8 newtons) and reaction 9.8 newtons.
If both balls freely fall from the same point, then the balls
rebound to different heights at different angles (directions). How to explain
it? Newton’s law [ Reaction (FBA) = – Action (FAB)] is applicable, which is
independent of all factors. The law has not been applied to explain the
above simple observation quantitatively, however it is applicable. But
there are many other significant factors such as shape, composition, target,
etc. In this case action is mg (depends on mass only).
Hence Newton’s Third Law of Motion is generalized to
account for all the effective factors.
Reaction (FBA) = – Action(FAB) [Kshape x Kcomposition x Ktarget x Kother ]
If Newton’s third law is not applicable here, then we have to explain why it
is not applicable. At the macroscopic level, Newton’s law is explained by
many other daily life examples qualitatively. Or if we can explain the above
observation by some other law or equation quantitatively, we should try. It
is open to all.
