What is Newton’s first law of motion?
Newton’s first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed unless an outside force acts upon it.
What is Newton’s second law of motion?
Newton’s second law of motion states that force equals mass times acceleration.
What is Newton’s third law of motion?
Newton’s third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
What is the second law of thermodynamics?
Often called the law of entropy, the second law of thermodynamics explains why heat flows from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature.
