What is 1st law of motion?

Newtons 1st law states that every body continues to be in its own state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight path unless it is compelled by any external force to change its state. If a force is exerted on a body the body will move but without force it will not move.


How does newtons 1st law of motion act on the derby car?

What do newtons laws have to do with lacrosse?

Newtons laws have to do with lacrosse when (in guys lacrosse) you push the other player, which relates to newtons 2nd law, the larger the mass the harder the acceleration. Also, newtons 1st law involves throwing and catching a ball, newtons law says and object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force. The object in motion is the ball and the outside force is the other person catching it, stopping the motion. Newtons third law relates to lacrosse when you make a shot and hit the post causing it to bounce off. The 3rd law states for every action theres an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction is the ball flying off the post.


Who Created Newtons 1st and 3rd law?

Use newtons first law of motion to explain why air bags on cars are important during head-on collisions?

It would be better to use newtons second law to explain this but okay. well newtons 1st law states that an object in motion will stay in motion unless stopped by a force. So, if your in the car going 40 miles an hour and you suddenly stop the car without slowing down, the car stops but you don't and you would keep going in the same speed and direction without the airbags there or a seatbelt you would fly right through the windshield so the airbag protects you from the objects you would slam into in a car crash.
