1. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.
This means that something movign will continue to move unless something else comes in contact with it, such as gravity. Ex: When you throw a ball up, it would continue to go in the continuous motion of up, but the external force of gravity brings it back down.
2.Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass the greater the amount of force needed.
This means that the heavier an object is, the harder it is to be put into motion. Ex: If a person kicks a car with the same power they kick a tissue box with, which would go further? The tissue box of course.
3.For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
This means that when something is put to motion there are opposite actions. Ex: When you jump your pushing down but going up.
WITHOUT THESE LAWS THE WORLD WOULD BE ALL OVER THE PLACE PRACTICALLY WITH NO SENSE OF STOPPING OR IN THAT CASE MOVING!!!
I really hope your not going to use all my information for homework as plagerism.

1. An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. (Friction, Gravity)
2. F=M*A
3. For Every action, there is an equal and opposite Reaction
Everyone looks at Newton's Laws as rules that the world follows because they are called Laws, but lets not forget that these "Laws" were being "followed" long before Newton was around. They are more so analysis of the world and pointing out the obvious.

The three laws of Newton are all based on answering the question on what happens ,if an heavy apple falls on top of your head.
1st Law;
The apple was made to move because it experienced gravity pressure that pushed it down ,it continued in that motion unless it was hindered by another object( In this case it was Newton's head)
2nd Law;
When the motion of the apple was hindered (caused to stop moving) a force was born,Newton called it Gravity force
(which derived from Latin means weight).
He equated the formulation of this weight as being equal to the product of two factors;The mass substance of the apple and how fast it moved for each seconds of motion(Called acceleration)
3rd Law;
Newton realized that the apple that fell on his head was very heavy when it collided to his head. The apple bounced off and a lumped formed on the Head.
He concluded that to every heavy force there is a heavy reaction.
This concludes the description of Newton's three laws of motion.
Later came Einstein;He revamped the Laws of motion and Gravity, and refined them to means that the reason things are heavy is because the structure of space is distorted and is proportional to the curvature of Space and time.
However the Einstein General relativity formulas and Special relativity were either too complicated or not understood.
So When it comes to simplicity Newton's 3 Laws of motion are still used today.

in my opinion, maybe, you cannot know what would be the effects on it
law of inertia
=An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by a net force.
law of accelaration
=Force equals mass multiplied by acceleration.
law of reciprocal reaction
=To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
