In this talk, we will continue our discussion of Yang-Mills theory and provide some perspective on the usage of Lagrangians in solving the Yang-Mills equation. In addition, we will explore how the Yang-Mills field is a generalization of the electromagnetic-field which can be applied in other contexts, namely the strong and weak forces. We will then provide a wrapper for the Yang-Mills equation back into Newton's F=ma. If time permits, a discussion of representation theory in gauge theory will occur
