Abstract
In this chapter the principle of inertia and inertial frames are introduced. In the inertial frames the axiomatic of classical forces is discussed. Then, the Newton laws are recalled together with some important consequences (momentum balance, angular momentum balance, kinetic energy, König’s theorem). Dynamics in noninertial frames both in the absence and in the presence of constraints is presented together with some exercises of point dynamics.
