उत्तर
According to newton's second law of motion, when a force acts on a body, the rate of change in momentum of a body is equal to the product of the mass of the body and acceleration produced in it.
Yes, Newton's first law is contained in the second law as if force is zero then the acceleration would be zero which means the body would remain in its state of rest or in state of constant motion.

A body of mass 0.40 kg moving initially with a constant speed of 10 m s–1 to the north is subject to a constant force of 8.0 N directed towards the south for 30 s. Take the instant the force is applied to be t = 0, the position of the body at that time to be x = 0, and predict its position at t = –5 s, 25 s, 100 s.
