What are the three Newton's Laws
Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it (Law of Inertia) The resultant sum of all the forces acting on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration of the object: F = ma. When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body

What is friction? What are the two types of friction?
The force of friction is a force that resists motion when two objects are in contact. There are two forms of friction, kinetic and static. If you try to slide two objects past each other, a small amount of force will result in no motion. The force of friction is greater than the applied force. This is static friction. If you apply a little more force, the object "breaks free" and slides, although you still need to apply force to keep the object sliding. This is kinetic friction. You do not need to apply quite as much force to keep the object sliding as you needed to originally break free of static friction.

Explain how a hydraulic jack works
Two pistons connected have the same pressure. The The quotient between force and pressure is the same on the two pistons, and therefore a small force over a small surface will produce a big force over a big surface
