Study Notes
Newton's First Law of Motion
- Describes the concept of inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion
- States that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move with a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force
- Introduced by Sir Isaac Newton in 1666 at the age of 23
Kepler's Laws and Planetary Motion
- Newton's laws, together with Kepler's Laws, explain that planets move in elliptical orbits around the Sun
