Question
select all that apply
to which of the following things would newtons laws apply?
light
rocks on mars
planets
trucks
galaxies
sound waves
satellites in space
rocks on earth
airplanes
Brief Explanations
Newton's laws describe the motion of macroscopic, massive objects moving at speeds much slower than light. Light is massless electromagnetic radiation, and sound waves are pressure disturbances in matter, so they do not follow Newton's laws of motion. All other listed items are massive, macroscopic objects where Newton's laws accurately predict their motion.
