5 Questions
Explain Newton's first law of motion in your own words.
An object remains at rest or in a constant state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.
What is the relationship between a body's acceleration, mass, and net force according to Newton's second law of motion?
The body's acceleration multiplied by its mass is equal to the net force acting on it.
According to Newton's third law of motion, what is the relationship between the forces exerted by two bodies on each other?
The forces exerted by two bodies on each other have the same magnitude but opposite directions.
When and where were Newton's laws of motion first stated?
Isaac Newton first stated his laws of motion in his work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, originally published in 1687.
What are some limitations to Newton's laws of motion?
Limitations include the need for new theories when objects move at very high speeds (special relativity), are very massive (general relativity), or are very small (quantum mechanics).
