Jun 5, 2016 at 9:53 comment added Isomorphic Seriously? You can describe things with just those two laws? You really need to start working more hard in the gym. @CuriousOne That is a painful way of getting out.

Jun 5, 2016 at 8:38 comment added CuriousOne Newton's third law is momentum conservation for contact forces, and you basically can't do much meaningful physics without it. A perfectly good example for a world in which Newton's third law doesn't hold is Muenchausen pulling himself out of the swamp by his own hair: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3b/…. Clearly this doesn't happen in real life and the reason for that, in Newtonian terms, is Newton's third law.
