Under certain conditions usually fulfilled in classical mechanics, the principle of conservation of linear momentum and Newtons third law are equivalent. However, the demonstration of this fact is usually incomplete in textbooks. We shall show here that to demonstrate the equivalence, we require the explicit use of the principle of superposition contained in Newtons second law. On the other hand, under some additional conditions the combined laws of conservation of linear and angular momentum, are equivalent to Newtons third law with central forces. The conditions for such equivalence apply in many scenarios of classical mechanics; once again the principle of superposition contained in Newtons second law is the clue.

We analyze the transformation properties of Faraday law in an empty space and its relationship with Maxwell equations. In our analysis we express the Faraday law via the four-potential of electromagnetic field and the field of four-velocity, defined on a circuit under its deforming motion. The obtained equations show one more facet of the physical meaning of electromagnetic potentials, where the motional and transformer parts of the flux rule are incorporated into a common phenomenon, reflecting the dependence of four-potential on spatial and time coordinates, correspondingly. It has been explicitly shown that for filamentary closed deforming circuit the flux rule is Lorentz-invariant. At the same time, analyzing a transformation of e.m.f., we revealed a controversy: due to causal requirements, the e.m.f. should be the value of fixed sign, whereas the Lorentz invariance of flux rule admits the cases, where the e.m.f. might change its sign for different inertial observers. Possible resolutions of this controversy are discussed.

Misinterpretations of Newtons second law for variable mass systems found in the literature are addressed. In particular, it is shown that Newtons second law in the form $vec{F} = dot{vec{p}}$ is valid for variable mass systems in general, contrary to the claims by some authors that it is not applicable to such systems in general. In addition, Newtons second law in the form $vec{F} = m vec{v}$ -- commonly regarded as valid only for constant mass systems -- is shown to be valid also for variable mass systems. Furthermore, it is argued that $vec{F} = m vec{v}$ may be considered as the fundamental law, alternatively to $vec{F} = dot{vec{p}}$. The present work should be of direct relevance to both instructors and students who are engaged in teaching and/or learning classical mechanics in general and variable mass systems in particular at a middle- to upper-level university physics.
We present a new approach to quantum gravity starting from Feynmans formulation for the simplest example, that of a scalar field as the representative matter. We show that we extend his treatment to a calculable framework using resummation techniques already well-tested in other problems. Phenomenological consequences for Newtons law are described.
In this work we present a close correlation between third Kepler law and Titius-Bode empirical rule. Concretely, we demonstrate that third Kepler law, or, corresponding equilibrium condition between centrifugal and Newtonian gravitational force, impl ies that planet orbital momentum becomes effectively a function of the planet distance as unique variable and vice versa. Then, approximation of the planet distance by its first order Taylor expansion over planet orbital momentum holds an exponential form corresponding to Titius-Bode rule. In this way it is not necessary postulate exponential form of the planet distance (as it has been done by Scardigli) but only discrete values of its argument. Physically, it simply means that, in the linear approximation, quantized planets orbital momentums do a geometrical progression.

Historically, the thermodynamic behavior of gasses was described first and the derived equations were adapted to solids. It is suggested that the current thermodynamic description of solid phase is still incomplete because the isothermal work done on or by the system is not counted in the internal energy. It is also suggested that the isobaric work should not be deducted from the internal energy because the system does not do work when it expands. Further more it is suggested that Joule postulate regarding the mechanical equivalency of heat -the first law of thermodynamics- is not universal and not applicable to elastic solids. The equations for the proposed thermodynamic description of solids are derived and tested by calculating the internal energies of the system using the equation of state of MgO. The agreement with theory is good.
