Newton Laws, Potential, Kinetic, Force and Motion

Newton's 3rd Law of motion states that....

• A object in motion/rest stays in motion/rest until it is acted upon by an unbalanced force.

• Force is equal to the mass and the acceleration of an object.

• For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

A book rests on a table.  The force of gravity pulls down on the book with a force of 20 newtons. What prevents the books from accelerating downward ?   

• The table presses back up on the book with an equal and opposite force of 20 newtons.

• The table presses back up with a force greater than 20 Newtons

• The tale and the book together are accelerating downwards at 9.8 m/sec2

• The inertia of the book holds it up

A rocket is launching on a mission to the International Space Station. Upon takeoff, a large jet of fire comes from the bottom of the spacecraft towards the ground. The rocket then begins to move towards the sky.
