Newton's 3 laws of motion
Law 1) an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion maintains its velocity unless it experiences an unbalanced force
Law2) the unbalanced force acting on an object equals the object mass times its acceleration
Law3) for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force

Laws of motion demonstrated by catapult
Law1) will be demonstrated by the spring shooting forward and will remain in motion until it touches the body of the catapult
Law2) will be demonstrated by having a no string and that will cause the object to be shot into motion
Law3) will be demonstrated by the spoon moving forward then the object will keep moving forward in the same direction
