1. The problem statement, all variables and
given/known data
What would the best choice be:Newton's Law 1 or 2 or 3. Wearing a seatbelt and when it stops.
N/A
I thought the best choice would be 3 because for every action there's a reaction. I don't know any responses that fit to Newton's Law 1. I don't think it's Law 1 because objects tend to stay in motion/rest unless acted by external force, and there was an unbalanced force that caused change - or does it also imply that if an unbalance force is exerted it fits Newton's Law 1? The seat belt causes an external force and Law 1 states that the net force would be 0
One more question why would this be Newton's 1st law?
"a frog leaping upward off his lily pad is pulled downward by gravity and lands on another lily pad instead of contiuing on in a straight line"
I'm confused about if an object were to stop would it be considered Newton's 1st law
