The document discusses Isaac Newton and his three laws of motion. Newton's First Law states that an object at rest stays at rest or an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force such as friction or gravity. Newton's Second Law explains that acceleration is produced when a force acts upon an object, changing its speed or direction. Newton's Third Law covers action-reaction forces, stating that when one object exerts a force on another, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force back on the first.

acts on matter ,this causing a change in speed or direction of an object. Acceleration 1. Any change in the SPEED or DIRECTION of motion of an OBJECT. The Man Who Made Sense Of It All Newton’s First Law 1. An object at rest stays at rest 2. An object in motion stays in motion - Unless acted upon by an outside force - Friction and gravities pull are a good example of these outside forces. Newton’s Second Law 1. An object accelerates 2. Can be a change in acceleration - When a force acts upon a object, its speed and direction changes. This causing, I know you guessed, acceleration. Newton’s Third Law 1. Exert (a push) 2. Two objects - when one objects exerts force on another object, the second object will exert an equal and opposite force on the first object.
