Unit 5: Newton's Laws

For the first day of unit 5, we talked about someone named Newton and some stuff he said a long time ago. We learned about three different laws in particular.

Newton's 1st Law- An object that is in motion/rest will stay in motion/rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
(I tried telling my mom I couldn't help her with the dishes because it went against Newton's laws but she just took my laptop away.)
Newton's 2nd Law- Force = mass x acceleration
(Mass and acceleration are inversely related to each other. I got that wrong on the remote quiz-things. A lot.)

Newton's 3rd Law- Between two interacting objects, there are equal and opposite forces between them.
(Like when you push one of your annoying friends in front of a bus. They hit the bus just as hard as the bus hits them, though one gets off with only a messed up paint job and the other is broken. Which is which, you decide.)
