Newtons first law of motion:

It state that anybody in the rest it will be in the rest, if anybody in the motion it will be in the uniform motion, either we are not apply extnal force in it. Ex: (1) we see that a glass on water placed on table remains there unless a force is applied to remove it. (2) if a car is moving with uniform velocity, it goes on moving with the same velocity, practically we observe that when its engine is turned off it stops gradually. In space the bodies are in the motion bcz there is no extnal force to stop then. newtons first law also called the law of inertia. Which mean unwilling or opposition

Inertia: it is the property of mass which oppose the state of rest or motion.
Ex: if there are two bodies have different masses, it is more difficult to move the body of greater mass from its rest passion or to stop.

Newtons second law of motion: we know that if we increased the force applies on a body ,it
moves faster which means more acceleration is produced and if small force is applied then the acceleration produced is small. If equal force are applied on two bodies of different masses ,then the acceleration produced in the body of smaller mass will be more than the acceleration produced in the body of larger mass. Therefore newtons second law of motion expressed when a force acts upon a body, an acceleration is produced in the direction of force and the magnitude of acceleration is directly proportional to the force and is inversely proportional; to the mass of the body.

Newtons third law of motion:


Every action have equal reaction but opposite in direction Or action and reaction are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction EX: 1) when a bullet is fired from gun ,the bullet moves in the forward direction while the gun recoils in the backward direction. The forward motion of the bullet is action while the backward motion of gun is reaction.
