Third Law:
For every action (or force) there is an equal and
opposite reaction (or force).
When a cannon is fired the ball
shoots out and one direction, but
the cannon itself is pushed back
in the opposite direction.
If a force is applied to an object it may change its energy.
That energy must be used to do work, or accelerate, an ob-
ject. There are many types of energy. Kinetic and Potential
energy are found in all things.
