Force-if an object moving with uniform speed is acted upon an external force, the change of motion or acceleration, will be directly proportional to the amount of force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object being moved.
—The acceleration of the object will be directly impacted by the size of the external object.
Newton’s third law of motion ?
Action and reaction- for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

When a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a constriction or narrowing of the tube , the speed of the fluid passing through the constriction is increased and it’s pressure decreased.
