Newton believed that the universe was static with the stars fixed in place for all time. in view of his theory of gravity, in which all objects attract all other objects in the universe, how did he explain the fact that these stars did not pull themselves toward each other under these mutual forces, causing the universe to collapse?

Imagine that someone pushes one marble toward a motionless marble. would there still be action-reaction forces involved in the collision? how might the marbles’ motions be changed? ?

Arunner is jogging at a steady 3.6 km/hr. when the runner is 2.9 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying from the runner to the finish line at 14.4 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). when the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies back to the runner. even though the bird is a dodo, we will assume that it occupies only one point in space, i.e., a zero-length bird. how far does the bird travel? (b) after this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. the bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. how far does the bird travel from the beginning? (i.e. include the distance traveled to the first encounter)
