Inertia

Inertia is the property of matter that causes it to resist changes in its motion or state of rest. According to Newton's first law of motion, an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion at a constant speed and in a straight line will stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Inertia causes moving objects to continue moving and objects at rest to remain at rest until an external force impacts the object.

Inertia
- 1. INERTIA
- 2. Inertia is the property of matter that cause it to resist any change in its motion or state of rest
- 3. An Object in Motion
- 4. INERTIA makes the moving object continue to move at a constant speed in the same direction unless some external force changes the object’s motion If the object is moving….
- 5. An Object at Rest
- 6. A Coin at Rest
- 7. It tends to stay in that position unless some force puts that object into motion If an object is at rest…
- 8. Inertia is not physical quantity and thus it does not have units The property of inertia is found from the Newton’s first law of motion
- 9. Newton’s First Law of Motion "An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion the same speed and in the same direction tends to stay in motion with unless acted upon by an unbalanced force"
