Topic 1
A free-body diagram isolates the object and shows only the forces acting on it.
Topic 2
Understand static, limiting, and kinetic friction and solve inclined-plane cases.
Topic 3
Circular motion needs an inward centripetal force, and friction can sometimes provide that force.

Topic list
Topic 1
Apply Newton's laws using force diagrams and equations of motion.
Topic 2
Understand static, limiting, and kinetic friction and solve inclined-plane cases.
Topic 2
Friction explains contact resistance, while circular motion introduces centripetal force and the inward force needed to keep an object moving in a curve.
