Newton's laws of motion are a set of three fundamental principles that explain the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting upon it. The first law, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. The second law relates the acceleration of an object to the net force acting upon it and its mass, stating that the force applied is directly proportional to the mass of the object and the acceleration produced. The third law, known as the law of action-reaction, states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. These laws provide the foundation for understanding and predicting the behavior of objects in motion and are essential in the field of physics.
