A Everybody continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion, in a straight line, unless it is acted upon by some external force
B The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the impressed force, and takes place in the same direction, in which the force acts
C To every action, there is always an equal and opposite reaction
D None of the above

Correct Answer: Everybody continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion, in a straight line, unless it is acted upon by some external force
