what is newton's 1st law??!?

a)

every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

b)

for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.

c)

the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.

d)

states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.
