Cat Physics Lesson
Newton’s Laws of Motion as applied to Cats and Kittens
By John Mollan © 2022
1. A cat at rest remains at rest, and a kitten in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force such as a can opener or a laser beam.
2. The acceleration of a cat depends on the level of curiosity.
3. Whenever a cat or kitten exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite on the first which results in the other object to be knocked onto the floor.
