Question

imagine a rocket is being launched from the earth. hot gases are pushe out from the bottom of the rocket as the rocket is pushed upward. the force of the gases pushing against the surface of the earth is equal and opposite to the force with which the rocket moves upward. the motion of the rocket can be explained by newtons third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. in other words, when one object exerts a force on another object the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction on the first object. give a description/definition of newtons first law and an everyday example. (4 points) give a description/definition of newtons first law and an everyday example. (4 points) give a description/definition of newtons first law and an everyday example. (4 points)

Explanation:

Newton's First Law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. For the example, when a car suddenly stops, a person inside (not wearing a seat - belt) continues moving forward due to inertia (the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion), which is in line with Newton's First Law.

Answer:

Newton's First Law: An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Example: When a car suddenly stops, a person inside (not wearing a seat - belt) continues moving forward.
