Which one of Newton's laws is this equation from and why?
a=[(m1-m2)g]/[m1+m2]
a=[(m1-m2)g]/[m1+m2]
Newton's laws of motion are a set of three physical laws that describe how objects move and interact with each other.
The first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
The second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object and inversely proportional to its mass.
The third law of motion, also known as the law of action and reaction, states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The first law of motion is related to the concept of inertia, the second law involves force and acceleration, and the third law deals with action and reaction. By examining the variables and relationships in an equation, you can determine which law it is representing.
