Newton's First Law of Motion: Mass and Inertia

The video tutorial explains Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia. It describes how an object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force. The tutorial explores the concept of friction and how it affects motion on Earth compared to space, where friction is absent. It discusses inertia, the resistance to changes in motion, and how it relates to mass. Practical examples, such as cars and seatbelts, illustrate these concepts. The video concludes with an introduction to net force and its role in causing acceleration.
