Definitions for "Newton's laws of motion"
Keywords:  isaac, inertial, inertia, sir, momentum
There are three laws: 1. A body in motion remains in motion, and a body at rest remains at rest, unless some outside force acts on it. 2. A body's acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied to it, and the body moves in a straight line away from the force. 3. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The three laws -- the Law of Inertia, the Force Law, and the Law of Action and Reaction -- elucidated by Newton, which govern the motion of objects in inertial reference systems.
laws that describe how the forces that act on an object relate to how that object moves. 1. An object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an external force. 2. The acceleration of an object is proportional to the force applied to it and inversely proportional to its mass. 3. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
