Question
select all that apply
to which of the following things would newtons laws apply?
sound waves
rocks on earth
airplanes
trucks
satellites in space
planets
galaxies
light
rocks on mars
Newton's laws describe the motion of macroscopic objects with speeds much slower than the speed of light. Sound waves are not massive objects, light behaves per quantum and relativistic rules, and galaxies involve extreme scales where general relativity is needed instead of Newtonian mechanics. All other options are macroscopic objects moving at non-relativistic speeds where Newton's laws hold.
