vector quantity
.
Newton’s first law
of motion or Law of
Inertia
Newton’s third law
of motion
Zero
net force
on an object results in an
equilibrium
state.
Forces in nature always come in pairs.
A
force diagram
illustrates forces that act on an object in both size and direction.
Forces cause changes in motion.
