Q

Newton’s first law of motion states:

A

“An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the
same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced
force.”

is the amount of matter that an object possesses. It is also used to describe how
much inertia an object has. Its unit of measurement is kilogram (kg). The mass of an
object remains constant and is not dependent on the force of gravity.
