Newton's Law of Inertia (first law) describes the motion of:

• Objects at rest only
• Objects in motion only
• Objects at rest and objects that are in motion
• Objects that accelerate

Law of Acceleration

Front

An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion, unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
