Newton's Laws of Motion consist of three key principles: the First Law states that objects remain at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an external force; the Second Law defines force as the product of mass and acceleration; and the Third Law asserts that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

Physics - Newton’s Laws of Motion:

1.​First Law (Law of Inertia) – An object at rest


stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in
motion unless acted upon by an external
force. Example: A book remains on a table
unless pushed.
2.​Second Law (F = ma) – The force acting on
an object is equal to its mass times its
acceleration. Example: Pushing a heavy box
requires more force than pushing a light one.
3.​Third Law (Action-Reaction) – For every
action, there is an equal and opposite
reaction. Example: A rocket launching exerts
force downward, causing it to rise upward.
