For every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction

# data[].attributes.body
The acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object

F=ma

The Law of Inertia

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.

Newton's 3rd Law Explained with Skateboard, Rocket

# data[].attributes.body
Force -> Newtons (N)
Acceleration -> meters per second squared (m/s²)
Mass -> kilograms (kg)

# data[].attributes.body
Force equals the mass multiplied by the acceleration
F = m * a

Acceleration equals the force divided by the mass
a = F/m

Mass equals the force divided by the acceleration
m = F/a

Inertia -  An object's tendency to resist change in motion.

Mass - The measure of the amount of matter in a body.

Force - A push or a pull between objects.

Force Pair - An action force and the reaction force that it produces, according to Newton's Third Law of Motion.

Acceleration - The rate at which an object changes speed or direction.

Momentum -  The product of mass and velocity.

Balanced Force - Two or more forces that act on on an object without causing a change in the object's motion. (Net force = 0)

Unbalanced Force - Two or more forces that produce a net force on an object.  This causes the object to change speed or direction (accelerate).
