The video explains Newton's First Law of Motion, focusing on the concept of inertia. It describes how inertia affects objects at rest and in motion, using examples like a bag on a bike and a person on a bus. The video illustrates how inertia causes objects to resist changes in their state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.
