tendency of an object to resist a change in motion

• inertia

• unbalanced force

• net force

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist motion.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Newton's first law of motion is also called the law of acceleration.

• TRUE

• FALSE

If an object is at rest, inertia will keep it at rest.
