According to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving with the same velocity, unless acted upon by an external force.
The SI unit of force is the:
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object, and inversely proportional to its mass.
The relationship between force, mass, and acceleration is described by the equation:
Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
The SI unit of mass is the:
The SI unit of acceleration is the:
The force of friction is a force that opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact.
The coefficient of friction is a dimensionless quantity that characterizes the amount of friction between two surfaces.
The laws of motion were first formulated by:
The laws of motion are fundamental to the study of:
The laws of motion have been used to explain a wide range of phenomena, including:
The laws of motion are still used today in a variety of fields, including:
The laws of motion are considered to be one of the most important and fundamental theories in physics.
