Newton’s First Law of Motion Flashcards
1
Q
It is the tendency of an object to resist motion.
A
Inertia
2
Q
Where do they base in getting the inertia of an object at rest?
A
Mass
The larger the object, the larger is the inertia
3
Q
In moving objects, where do the inertia depends on?
A
Momentum
4
Q
An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion at constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.
A
The first law of motion; Law of Inertia
5

Law of inertia
