An object that has no kinetic energy, only potential energy.
Objects at Rest was created on 1998-11-18.
Objects at rest stay at rest because of inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. Inertia causes the object to maintain its state of rest unless acted upon by an external force.
As you can observe, they will not ALWAYS be at rest. Objects have a tendency to remain at rest, because:* Inertia means that if no force acts on an object, it will remain at rest if it was at rest; or, if it was moving, it will continue moving at the same velocity. * Friction forces will usually slow objects down.
The tendency of objects in motion to stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force is known as inertia.
The term you are looking for is 'inertia'.
That is the definition of motion
Rest in physics refers to an object being stationary or not moving. In the context of motion, rest serves as a reference point to determine an object's change in position or velocity. When an object is at rest, it provides a frame of reference for observing and measuring motion, allowing us to analyze and understand the movement of objects in relation to their stationary state.
