"An object at rest stays at rest, an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a force."

• Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia)

• Newton's Second Law of Motion (Law of Acceleration)

• Newton's Third Law of Motion (Law of Reactions)

"Acceleration is produced when a force is applied to a mass. The greater the mass, the more force needed."

• Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia)

• Newton's Second Law of Motion (Law of Acceleration)

• Newton's Third Law of Motion (Law of Reactions)
