Isaac Newton discovered gravity when an apple had fallen on his head. He then began to think about how the apple had fallen onto his head and thus Newton’s three laws of motion were created. Newton’s first law of motion is an object in motion tends to stay in motion; an object at rest tends to stay at rest, unless another force is acted upon it. Newton’s second law of motion is about the formula for force, which is force= mass*acceleration. Newton’s third law of motion is for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Furthermore, Isaac Newton created the three laws of motion.
Firstly, Newton’s first law of motion is an object tends to stay in the state they are in, unless another force is acted upon it. This law is also known as the law of inertia. When an object is in motion it would like to keep moving forever, but in reality it stops. It stops for various reasons such as air, the surface on which it traveling, gravity, and it may hit an obstacle. Therefore, that is why in space, any object would keep moving on forever because there is nothing there to stop it from mov...
