Law 1
“ Corpus omne perseverare in statu suo quiescendi vel movendi
uniformiter, nisi quatenus a viribus impressis cogitur statum illum
mutare.”
Everybody continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a
right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces
impressed upon it.

“ Corpus omne perseverare in statu suo quiescendi vel movendi

Everybody continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a
right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces
impressed upon it.
Law 2
“ Mutationem motus proportionalem esse vi motrici impressae, et
fieri secundum rectam qua vis illa impritmitur.”
The change of motion is proportional to the motive force
impressed, and it is made in the direction of the right line in which
that force is impressed.

Law 3
“ Actioni contrariam semper et aequalem esse reactionem: sive
corporum duorum actions in se mutuo semper esse aequales et in
partes contrarias dirigi.”
To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or, the
mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and
directed in contrary parts.
