Consider the situation below which of these is the best example of Newton's first law a bird takes a flight from the ground a tennis player throws the tennis ball into the air for a serve in the ball falls to the ground you go down a steep hill and a sled and it feels like your stomach is going up into your throat Tom uses a cane to walk across the road
The best example of Newton's first law is "Tom uses a cane to walk across the road." Newton's first law states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. In this case, Tom using a cane to walk across the road is an example of an object (Tom) in motion due to an external force (using the cane) to overcome the force of gravity and other frictional forces.
The best example of Newton's first law is "Tom uses a cane to walk across the road."
The best example of Newton's first law among the given situations is "you go down a steep hill on a sled and it feels like your stomach is going up into your throat."
Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless acted upon by an external force.
In this case, as you go down the steep hill on a sled, your body tends to remain in its state of motion. Due to the sudden change in direction and the force of gravity pulling you downward, your body tends to resist this change. This resistance or reluctance is why you feel your stomach going up into your throat.
To determine the best example of Newton's first law, we consider the situation where the object (your body) tends to maintain its state of motion (moving downward on the sled) until an external force (such as friction or another obstacle) acts upon it.
