What does Newton's first law of motion state?

• An object will change its motion randomly.

• An object will maintain its current state of motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

• An object will always be in a state of motion.

• An object at rest will remain at rest forever.

What is another name for Newton's first law of motion?

• Law of gravity

• Law of acceleration

• Law of inertia

• Law of force

What is inertia?

• The force that keeps an object in motion

• The tendency of matter to resist a change in motion

• The measurement of how fast an object moves

• The force required to keep an object at rest

What does mass measure?

• The speed of an object

• The force applied to an object

• The quantity of matter

• The resistance to gravity

What changes the motion of the vehicle according to the Law of Inertia?

• The motion of the vehicle does not change

• The balanced force from the wall

• The unbalanced force from the wall

• The motion of the cooler

Why does the cooler continue in motion according to the Law of Inertia?

• Because it experiences an unbalanced force

• Because it is part of the vehicle

• Because it does not experience the unbalanced force

• Because it is cooler than the vehicle

Why does the book move at a constant velocity according to the Law of Inertia?

• Because the gravitational force is equal to the normal force

• Because the applied force is greater than the frictional force

• Because the applied force is equal to the frictional force

• Because the frictional force is greater than the applied force
