Third Law of Motion

 

 Laws of Motion 1 and 2  here  

3   The Third Law of Motion

1. The third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. 
2. 
   
3. This means that there are always two forces that are the same. 
4. 
   
5. In the example where you kicked the ball there is the force of your foot on the ball, but there is also the same amount of force that the ball puts on your foot. 
6. 
   
7. This force is in the exact opposite direction.

What is motion?

1. In science, motion is a change in position compared to a place or an object that is not moving. 
2. 
   
3. The place or object that is not moving is called the frame of reference.
4. 
   
5. Motion is a kind of puzzle because every object in the universe is in motion. source

What are the three laws of motion .. ?

Use a note pad before skating down to the answers.

No cheating!

1. Newton's 1st law tells us that an object won't change its motion unless acted upon by a force. 
2. 
   
3. Newton's 2nd law tells us that heavier objects need a larger force to move them. 
4. 
   
5. Newton's 3rd law tells us that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. To better understand Newton's Laws of Motion…
