About Us
01
First Law (Law of Inertia)
An object remains at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
02
Second Law (Law of Motion)
Force is proportional to the mass of an object and its acceleration (F = ma).
03
Third Law (Action and Reaction)
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
