Model Specification
System Schema
Internal Constituents: Point particle.
External Agents: External influences must be absent or else cancel so that no acceleration results.
Descriptors
Object Variables: None.
State Variables: v, x, t
Interaction Variables: None.
Laws of Interaction
No net interaction is allowed.
Laws of Change
\begin
$x = x_
+ v(t-t_
)$\end
