mechanics
▪
According to Newtonian mechanics the orbital decay for an isolated binary consisting of compact stars is expected to be immeasurably small.
▪
This theory is now subsumed by Newtonian mechanics .
▪
Instead of the clarity and precision of Newtonian mechanics , we have to be content with a more fuzzy account of affairs.
▪
But then, Newtonian mechanics appeared precisely accurate, until Relativity was discovered.
▪
The relation of the one continuum to the other is not possible using Newtonian mechanics .
▪
Tidal stress and gravitational asymmetries had pulled the sphere out of shape. Newtonian mechanics had done the rest.
▪
Now if we wish to use Newtonian mechanics we must relate velocity and acceleration to the same particle.
▪
Calculations using Newtonian mechanics predict a precession of 532 arcsec per century.
physics
▪
Our macroscopic world is precise; it is the domain of classical Newtonian physics .
▪
Yet another Establishment arose, this time constituted of the practitioners and defenders of Newtonian physics .
▪
It was Newtonian physics again; for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
▪
The hard core of Newtonian physics is comprised of Newton's laws of motion plus his law of gravitational attraction.
▪
In its curriculum the school concentrated on mathematics and science; there were courses in algebra, geometry and Newtonian physics .
