What does Newton's First Law of Motion state?

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.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

Velocity of an object remains constant unless a force causes its speed or direction to change.
