What is nuclear energy
300
says that when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts a force of the same size, but in the opposite direction

flat areas made of deposits from overflowing waters of a river or lake
What is a plain
400
the energy stored and released from the bonds between atoms

400
states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force applied to the object divided by the object's mass

400
a push or pull on an object
