Newton's 3 Laws of Motion:

1st Law of Motion (Inertia)

The first law of motion states that a body at rest will remain at rest unless there is an external force acts on it forcing it to move, hence a body in motion will remain in motion unless an external force stops its movement.

2nd Law of Motion (Acceleration)

The second law of motion states that the force of an object is directly proportional to its mass and acceleration, thus the acceleration of an object is equal to the force exerted divided by the mass.

3rd Law of Motion (Action-Reaction)

The third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When two objects or bodies interact with each other, the sum of forces that are applied or the net force is equal but in a different direction.
