| Sir Isaac Newton | discovered the Laws of Motion |
| 1st Law of Motion | An object at rest will remain at rest, an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force |
| 2nd Law of Motion | The acceleration of a body depends upon the unbalanced force and the mass of the object |
| 3rd Law of Motion | For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction |
| Work | When force is applied to n object and the object is moved |
| Units of work | NM-newton-meters |
