Stavka koja se može prevući		Odgovarajuća stavka
Kepler's First Law		An object at rest will stay at rest, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
Kepler's Third Law		When two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
Kepler's Second Law		Objects in our solar system orbit in elliptical orbits with one focal point being the Sun
Newton's Third Law		The closer an object is the the object it's orbiting, the higher it's velocity
Newton's First Law		The larger the semimajor axis of an orbit, the longer the orbital period.
