    Newton's laws of motion, formulated by Sir Isaac Newton, are fundamental principles in physics that

    describe the relationship between an object and the forces acting upon it.

    First Law (Law of Inertia): An object remains at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted
    upon by an external force. This law explains the concept of inertia, where objects resist changes to their
    state of motion. For example, a book resting on a table stays at rest until someone applies a force to
    move it.

    Second Law: The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and
    inversely proportional to its mass, expressed as

    F=ma, where

    F is force,

    m is mass, and

    a is acceleration. This law highlights how heavier objects require more force to achieve the same
    acceleration as lighter objects.

    Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a swimmer pushes against
    the water, the water pushes back with an equal force, propelling the swimmer forward.

    Understanding these laws is crucial for studying motion, designing vehicles, and analyzing real-world
    mechanics.
