Very good point! I now see that my grasp of Physics is rusty haha

Also the first law and the idea of inertia that something won’t change its state unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. I think a lot of human action is merely a result of inertia. We don’t often change the things we do until we are forced to.

As in the third law of motion? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction?

Which scientist occupies prime space in your mind?

My daughter has a couple of the little people big dreams books but not this one. 

Personally I would go with Newton. Understanding newtons laws of motion is applicable beyond science and math and a great framework for understand the world and even human behaviour.
