Well, you might be a bit out of date. Newton's Laws were overturned
a few years back, and now are regarded only as models for motion
when discussing ordinary masses and distances. These laws break
down when talking about masses and distances that are very small,
or those that are very large, when dealing with things on a cosmic
scale, or when dealing with very large energies. That is what
keeps physics interesting, the more we learn, the less we seem to
know.
