What is Newton’s 1st law
An object remains at rest or in uniform motion unless acted on by a force
What is Newton’s 2nd law
F=ma
What is Newton’s 3rd law
For every interaction between two objects there is an equal and opposite reaction
When does object reach terminal velocity
When air resistance=weight
