A young child kicks a rock and feels pain in his foot. He gets angry and kicks the rock harder (thinking that will help somehow), and the pain the second time is worse. Which of Newton's laws of motion best explains why kicking the rock hurts the boy's foot? Your answer: O Newton's 15t law of motion O Newton's 2nd law of motion O Newton's 3rd law of motion

Expert Solution
Step 1

Newton's first law - An object resist any change in it's state of motion. If object was moving , it'll keep moving if it is rest, it'll be at rest untill unless any external force is applied.

Newton's second Law - 

F = m a 

F is force.

m is mass.

a is acceleration .

Newton's third law. - 

Every force has equal and opposite reaction.
