What was Newtons first law

Answers

Newton's first law is inertia. It is a law that you see in regular life. It states that a object that is still will stay still except for if a force acts on it. The law also states that a object in motion will continue at the same velocity except for if a force acts on it. The thing is that objects in motion are being slowed down by friction and air resistance and gravity
It states that each object will stay very still or in uniform movement in a straight line unless constrained to change its state by the activity of an outer power.

How is Earth like a magnet

Answers

Earth's magnetic field is mostly caused by electric currents in the liquid outer core, which is composed of conductive, molten iron. Loops of currents in the constantly moving, liquid iron create magnetic fields. From afar, the Earth looks like a big magnet with a north and south pole like any other magnet.
