Why do objects remained at rest?
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.
What word is used to show an objects tendency to remain at rest or keep moving with constant velocity?
Inertia
How do you describe inertia?
the tendency of a body at rest to remain at rest and of a body in motion to remain in motion
What is the tendency of an object at rest to remain at rest or an object in motion to remain in motion is called?
Newton's first law of motion
What measures an object's tendency to remain at rest or keep moving?
inertia
Tendency for a stationary object to remain at rest or for a moving object to continue moving?
ammonia....'_'
What is the tendency for an object at rest to remain at rest?
They will stay at rest until a force is applied to move it. This is due to the lack of energy it posseses.
What is another meaning of law of inertia?
Isaac Newton's first law of motion says that an object at rest tends to remain at rest. Newton's second law says that an object in motion tends to remain at motion in a uniform velocity unless acted upon by an outside force. Together, these are "inertia"; the tendency of stopped objects to stay stopped, and of moving objects to continue movement.
The tendency of an objects in motion to continue in motion in a strait line?
This is Newton's Second law of motion. Newton's First Law of motion says "A body at rest tends to remain at rest." The Third Law says "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. "
What is the measure of an objects ability to remain at rest or keep moving?
inertia
What is tendency for perceptions of objects to remain relatively unchanged in spite of changes in raw sensation is called?
perceptual constancy
Tendency to stay at rest or stay moving?
The tendency of a body to remain at rest or motion is called INERTIA. It is accounted in Newton's first law of motion saying force is required to remove inertia from a body
