Question

match each of newtons laws of motion to the statement it best describes. newtons first law of motion newtons second law of motion newtons third law of motion the stronger the wind is, the more maura will accelerate. maura continues gliding east until the wind pushes her further north. as maura readjusts her orientation, the lines of the glider pull on her hands with the same force that her hands pull on the lines.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (law of inertia) states an object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an external force. Maura gliding until the wind pushes her is an example of inertia. Newton's second law is $F = ma$, so the stronger the wind (force), the more acceleration, which is the second - statement. Newton's third law says for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The pull of the glider lines on Maura's hands and her hands on the lines is an action - reaction pair.

Answer:

Newton's first law of motion: Maura continues gliding east until the wind pushes her further north.
Newton's second law of motion: The stronger the wind is, the more Maura will accelerate.
Newton's third law of motion: As Maura readjusts her orientation, the lines of the glider pull on her hands with the same force that her hands pull on the lines.
