Explore and visualize Sir Isaac Newton's three laws of motion with interactive simulations
Newton's First Law of Motion
An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and direction, unless acted upon by an external force.

Newton's Second Law of Motion
The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F = ma).

Newton's Third Law of Motion
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal force in the opposite direction on the first object.
