Q

Newton’s 1st Law of Motion

A

1.An object at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

  1. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
  2. Referred to as the “Law of Inertia”

Q

Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion

A

Q

Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion

A

For every action, there is an equal and opposite re-action.
For every force acting on an object,
there is an equal force acting
in the opposite direction.
