State Newton's 3 Laws in words and/or mathematically

1st Law - An object will remain at rest or continue at constant velocity unless acted on by an unbalanced force
2nd Law - F=ma (for a constant mass body) /the net force acting on a body is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum
3rd Law - If body A exerts a force on body B, body B will exert an equal and opposite force on body A

A person swims from a depth of 0.50 m to a depth of 1.70 m below the surface of the sea. Density of the sea water = 1030 kg/m^3. Gravitational field strength = 9.8 N/kg. Calculate the increase in pressure on the swimmer. Give the unit.


What is terminal velocity? (falling bodies)


If fusing hydrogen nuclei together puts them into a lower energy state, and matter always wants to be in a lower energy state, then why hasn't all the hydrogen in the universe already done this?


What are the changes in energy that an object experiences when it is launched vertically at a given velocity into the air and falls back to the ground? This question ignores air resistance.
