saac Newton was an English mathematician, author, physicist, theologian, and astronomer. Newton is also one of the most influential scientists of all time. Newton was a key part in the scientific revolution. Isaac Newton was born December 25, 1643 in Woolsthorpe Manor, United Kingdom. He died March 31, 1727 in Kesington London, United Kingdom. Newton’s parents were Hannah Asycough Newton and his father was Robert Newton. Newton’s father died two months before he was born. His mother remarried and left him with his grandmother when he was just three years old. Later, he went to school and lived with a pharmacist, whose name was Clark. Newton was amazed at his laboratory and library. Clark’s daughter was always amused by the inventions …show more content…

The first law is known as law of inertia. Which means, an object at rest stays at rest an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless it is moved by an unbalanced force. This law has to do with space. For example, a glass of lemonade is sitting in a table. As the glass is picked up I would be using the external force which would change the direction of the object. In other words, everything stays the same until something takes place that changes the direction. This pertains to the behavior of objects where all forces are not balanced. The second law of motion,an object is dependant upon two variables. The net force acts upon the force of the object. As the force of an object the acceleration increases. For example, when playing baseball the second law of motion is applied. The ball, which is the object, will have more acceleration if you apply great force by swinging the bat. The object will travel farther and faster because of the force in swinging the bat. The third law of motion states” for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” An example would be, a person walking. As you put your foot on the ground that is the force on the foot is the reaction, and the force on the ground is the action. All three of these laws are used in everyday
