Newton's 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Law

1st Law - an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it

2nd Law -the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

3rd Law -when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

Impact
