Newton's 3 Laws of Motion
1. The Inertial Law: A body at rest
or in motion at a constant velocity along a straight line remains in that state of rest or
motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
2. The Force Law: The rate of change in a bodys velocity (its
acceleration) from an applied force is in the same direction as the force and proportional
to it, but is inversely proportional to its mass.

3. The Reaction Law: For every applied force, a force of equal
size, but opposite direction arises.
