1.

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

a)

An object will accelerate indefinitely without any force.

b)

An object will change its direction only when a force is applied.

c)

An object will only move if a force is applied continuously.

d)

An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.

2.
