 LAW OF INERTIA

• Law of Inertia states that object will remain at

rest or in a uniform motion (constant velocity)
in a straight line unless acted upon by an
external unbalanced force.
 LAW OF ACCELERATION

• Law of Acceleration states that the

acceleration of an object is directly
proportional to the magnitude of the net force
acting on it and is inversely proportional to its
mass.

3. What is the mass of a truck if it produces a

force of 15000 N while accelerating at a rate
of 6 m/s2?
 LAW OF INTERACTION

• Law of Interaction states that for every action,

there is an equal and opposite reaction.
