Have you ever wondered why things move the way they do? Do you ever stop and think about why objects come to a rest or why they speed up? Well, today we are going to take a closer look at the science behind movement and learn about one of the greatest scientists of all time - Sir Isaac Newton.
First, let's talk about Newton's First Law of Motion. This law states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue in motion with a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force.
Moving on to Newton's Second Law of Motion. This law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force applied to it, and inversely proportional to its mass.
Lastly, we have Newton's Third Law of Motion. This law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
We just went over the three laws of motion developed by Sir Isaac Newton. It's important to understand these concepts because they are fundamental in understanding how the world around us moves. In our next class, we will build on these concepts and apply them to real-life scenarios.
