∙ 10y agoNewton's First Law of Motion states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
The term inertia is also used to describe the resistance of an object to any change in its motion. If an object is not moving, it doesn't want to move. If it is moving, it doesn't want to change is speed or the direction it is moving. This is covered by Newton in his laws of motion.

∙ 10y agoThe tendency for an object in motion to remain in motion is called inertia. This principle is one of Newton's laws of motion, stating that an object will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
This tendency is called inertia, as described by Newton's First Law of Motion. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion.
The tendency for an object in motion to remain in motion is actually described by Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. Orbital speed specifically refers to the velocity required for an object to stay in orbit around another object due to the balance between the gravitational force and the centrifugal force.
The tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion with a constant velocity is known as inertia.
That tendency is called inertia. It is an object's resistance to changes in its motion and is dependent on its mass.
The tendency for an object to resist change once it is in motion is called inertia. This property is described by Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object will remain in its state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.

An object doesn't "want to" do anything. An object in motion has the natural tendency to remain in motion.
The tendency for an object to resist change once it is in motion is called inertia. This property is described by Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object will remain in its state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object remains at a constant velocity unless it has an unbalanced force acting upon it. That constant velocity includes zero, which means that a stationary object with no force applied to it will not move. Since velocity includes direction, then a moving object with no force applied to it will continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed.That tendency is called inertia.
The tendency of an object to resist any change in its condition of motion is called inertia. It means that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
The tendency for an object to resist change in its state of motion is known as inertia, as described by Newton's first law of motion. This principle states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion with a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force.
That tendency is called inertia. It is a property of matter where objects resist changes in their motion.
Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion, unless acted upon by an external force. This principle is described by Newton's First Law of Motion.
An object's tendency to remain at rest or keep moving is measured by its inertia. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion. The greater the inertia, the harder it is to change the object's state of rest or motion.
