1. Moral Law
2. State Law
3. Divine Law
4. Natural Law
5. Physical Law

Can you give an example of Divine Law?


Imagine you have a set of rules at home, like cleaning your room or finishing your
homework. Now, think about divine laws as rules that people believe come from a higher
power, like a god or goddess. These rules are thought to be very important and must be
followed because they are seen as sacred and unchangeable, like how we follow important
rules at home or school.

Can you give an example of a Natural Law?

An example of a natural law is Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation. This law explains
how every object with mass attracts every other object with mass. It's why when you drop
something, like a ball, it falls toward the ground instead of floating away. This law helps
scientists understand how objects move in space and on Earth.

I love physics! How about you? Can you still recall "laws" of Physic that you studied before?

Yes, I can recall some basic laws of physics. One is Newton's first law, which says an object
at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external
force. Another is Newton's second law, which explains how force, mass, and acceleration are
related: force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma). Lastly, there's Newton's third law,
stating that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. These laws help us
understand how objects move and interact in the physical world.
