Question
Write the three laws of motion.

Answer

  1. A body at rest or uniform motion will continue to maintain the status, till an unbalanced force acts on it.
  2. The rate of change of momentum is a measure of the force acting on the body.

Alternate Answer

The total unbalanced external force acting on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration.

  1. For every action there exists an equal and opposite reaction.
