    Laws of Motion

    1. Newton's First Law (Law of Inertia): This law states that an object
    at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion
    unless acted upon by an external force. It explains why we feel a jolt
    when a vehicle suddenly stops, as our bodies tend to keep moving
    due to inertia.
    2. Newton's Second Law (Force and Acceleration): This law
    quantifies the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration:
    F=maF = maF=ma. It implies that the acceleration of an object is
    directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to
    its mass. This principle is key in understanding how objects move and
    is fundamental in engineering mechanics.
    3. Newton's Third Law (Action and Reaction): This law states that for
    every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. It's the reason
    why a rocket can propel itself into space, as the force it expels
    downward creates an upward thrust that lifts it off the ground.
    4. Applications in Friction and Momentum: Newton’s laws explain
    frictional forces, where surfaces in contact resist motion, as well as
    momentum, the quantity of motion in a moving body. The laws of
    motion govern momentum conservation in collisions, essential in
    physics and engineering calculations.
    5. Role in Circular and Rotational Motion: Newton’s laws also apply
    to circular motion. For example, an object moving in a circle
    experiences centripetal force, directed towards the center of the
    circle, keeping it in its path. This principle is crucial in understanding
    the motion of planets and artificial satellites.
