1) an object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same direction and speed unless an unbalanced force acts upon it

2) The second law shows that if you exert the same force on two objects of different masses you will get different accelerations does acceleration on the smaller mass will be greater the effect of 1 10 newton force on a baseball would be much greater than that force acting on a truck the difference in acceleration is (Technically Force=Mass x Acceleration or F=MA)


3) For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction

Newton's First Law of Motion:

I. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.

Newton's Second Law of Motion:

II. The relationship between an object's mass m, its acceleration a, and the applied force F is F = ma. Acceleration and force are vectors (as indicated by their symbols being displayed in slant bold font); in this law the direction of the force vector is the same as the direction of the acceleration vector.

Newton's Third Law of Motion:

III. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
