For Laws of Motion

Newton's Laws of Motion, published by Sir Isaac Newton in 1687, are fundamental principles that describe the relationship between force and motion. They include the laws of inertia, acceleration, and action-reaction, which explain how objects move and react to forces. These laws are crucial for understanding various physical phenomena and have applications in engineering, physics, and everyday life.

Newtons First Law : The
Inertia
What is Inertia?
An object maintains its state of rest or
uniform motion in a straight line unless an
external force compels it to change that
state.
In the context of elementary or introductory
physics, inertia is often described as having
three main types:
• Inertia of rest: The tendency of an object
to stay at rest unless an external force acts
on it.
• Inertia of motion: The tendency of an
object to remain in uniform motion
(constant speed and direction) unless an
external force acts on it.
• Inertia of direction: The tendency of an

Force is directly proportional to the mass of an
object and its acceleration. This means a greater
force results in greater acceleration.

Newton's Third Law:
Action and Reaction

•Newton's third law of motion states that for


every action, there is an equal and opposite
reaction. This means that when one object
exerts a force on another object, the second
object exerts an equal force back on the first
object, but in the opposite direction.
•For example: When a rocket launches. The
engine expels hot gas downwards (action),
and in reaction, the gas pushes the rocket
upwards.
