Euler's laws of motion Euler's laws of motion In classical mechanics, Euler's laws of motion are equations of motion which extend Newton's laws of motion for point particle to rigid body motion. They were formulated by Leonhard Euler about 50 years after Isaac Newton formulated his laws. Euler's first law states that the linear momentum of a body, (also denoted ) is equal to the product of the mass of the body and the velocity of its center of mass : Internal forces between the particles that make up a body do not contribute to changing the total momentum of the body as there
Three Laws of Robotics Three Laws. However, the 1960s German TV series "Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion" ("Space Patrol – the Fantastic Adventures of Space Ship Orion") bases episode three titled ""Hüter des Gesetzes"" ("Guardians of the Law") on Asimov's Three Laws without mentioning the source. References to the Three Laws have appeared in popular music ("Robot" from Hawkwind's 1979 album "PXR5"), cinema ("Repo Man", "Aliens", ""), cartoon series ("The Simpsons"), tabletop roleplaying games (Paranoia) and webcomics ("Piled Higher and Deeper" and "Freefall"). Robby the Robot in "Forbidden Planet" (1956) has a hierarchical command structure which keeps him from harming humans,
