6.5.4.2 Forces, accelerations and Newton's Laws of motion (Higher & Foundation)

Explain the motion of an object moving with a uniform velocity and identify that forces must be in effect if its velocity is changing, by stating and applying Newton’s First Law
Define and apply Newton's second law relating to the acceleration of an object
Recall and apply the equation: [ F = ma ]
HT ONLY: Describe what inertia is and give a definition
Estimate the speed, accelerations and forces of large vehicles involved in everyday road transport
Apply Newton’s Third Law to examples of equilibrium situations
