NEWTONS LAW OF MOTION

Report by- Lushele R. Cuanico

Newton's First Law: Inertia

Newton's first state that An object at rest will stay at rest, forever, as
long as nothing pushes or pulls on it. An object in motion will stay in
motion, traveling in a straight line, forever, until something pushes or
pulls on it. “

EXAMPLE

When you are in a moving car. You are experiencing inertia as you move along. If
the car happens to stop, it will not affect you as you are currently in motion unless
a force, which is the seat belt in this case, will stop you from moving.

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed)

happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a
good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass.
Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the
force.

EXAMPLE

Pushing or pulling an empty cart is easy as compared to a loaded cart

because the loaded cart has more mass.

It is easier to push an empty shopping cart than a full one, because the
full shopping cart has more mass than the empty one. This means that
more force is required to push the shopping cart.
The second law states that the greater the mass of an object, the
more force it will take to accelerate the object. There is even an
equation that says Force = mass x acceleration or F=ma. This
also means that the harder you kick a ball the farther it will go.

3rd law of motion

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal
and opposite reaction. If object A exerts a force on object B, object B also exerts
an equal and opposite force on object A. In other words, forces result from
interactions.
 EXAMPLE

Recoiling of gun: When a bullet is fired from a gun, it exerts

forward force on the bullet and the bullet exerts equal and opposite force
on the gun. Due to the high mass of the gun, it moves a little distance
backward and gives a backward jerk to the shoulder of the gunman.
