Explanation of Solution

Newton’s First law: It states that a body will continue to be in state of rest or in state of motion with the same velocity along a straight line motion when net force action on it is zero.

Newton’s Second law: It states that acceleration experienced by a body is proportional to the net force applied on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.

Second law can be expressed mathematically as follows:

a=Fm

Here, a is the acceleration of the body, F is the force applied, and m is the mass of object.

Newton’s Third law: It states that for every action by a first object on other, there is always an equal and opposite reaction exerted by the second object on first.
