    Class Note: Newton's Laws of Motion

    1. Newton’s First Law (Law of Inertia)


    - Statement: An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight
    line unless acted upon by an external force.
    - Key Concept: Inertia is the property of matter that resists changes in its
    state of motion.
    - Example: A book on a table remains stationary unless pushed.

    2. Newton’s Second Law (Law of Acceleration)


    - Statement: The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net
    force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
    - Formula: F = ma
    - F: Force (in newtons, N)
    - m: Mass (in kilograms, kg)
    - a: Acceleration (in meters per second squared, m/s^2)
    - Key Concept: Heavier objects require more force to accelerate.
    - Example: A car accelerates faster when you apply more force to the gas pedal.

    3. Newton’s Third Law (Action and Reaction)


    - Statement: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
    - Key Concept: Forces always come in pairs acting on different objects.
    - Example: When you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal
    force.

    Applications in Daily Life:


    - Driving a car: Braking (First Law), accelerating (Second Law).
    - Jumping: Pushing the ground down (Third Law).
    - Sports: Throwing or hitting a ball involves all three laws.

    Important Terms:
    - Force: A push or pull acting on an object.
    - Mass: The amount of matter in an object.
    - Acceleration: The rate at which an object’s velocity changes.
