B Same case of Newton’s third law

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the application of Newton's third law in two scenarios: a monkey climbing a rope and a car accelerating on a road. Both cases illustrate how the application of force generates static friction, which is essential for the acceleration of the monkey and the car. Participants agree that the principles governing these scenarios are fundamentally similar. The emphasis is on understanding the role of static friction in facilitating movement in both examples. This analysis reinforces the relevance of Newton's laws in practical situations.

I think both are same cases of Newton’s third law. Both require applications of a force which generates static friction on rope and road and this force helps accelerate the monkey and the car up the rope and down the road. Right?
(Thanks for verifying)

Thread 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'
Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...
This has been discussed many times on PF, and will likely come up again, so the video might come handy.

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
