- If there is no net force on an object, then its velocity is constant. The object is either at rest (if its velocity is equal to zero), or it moves with constant speed in a single direction
- The acceleration a of a body is parallel and directly proportional to the net force F acting on the body, is in the direction of the net force, and is inversely proportional to the mass m of the body
- …and When a first body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force on the first body. This means that Force 1 and Force 2 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
