Newton's first law states that: Group of answer choices Ia. n the absence of any net force acting on it, a mechanical system is necessarily at rest. b. In the absence of a non-zero net force acting on it, a mechanical system keeps moving in the same direction at the same speed (including the case v=0). c. For any pair A/B of objects interacting with one another, the force of A acting on B is the equal-opposite of the force of B acting on A. d. The rate of change of the velocity of a system is proportional to the net force acting on it.
