Newton's first law of motion
Inertia. An object at rest, tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion.
An object at rest will tend to stay at rest and an object in motion will tend to stay in motion until an exterbal force acts on it is called INERTIA.
This is inertia. It is also Newton's first law of motion, also called the law of inertia.
An object's tendency to resist a change in its state of motion is called inertia. This is the basis of Newton's Laws of Motion; "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.". The state of motion refers to the object's velocity, which is the the speed and direction. One quantifies inertia as the quantity of mass of an object. On can say that the mass of an object is a measure of how much an object resists change in its motion. The more mass an object has, the more inertia it has. That's why it is harder to push a 3 ton box as opposed to a soccer ball, or something lighter.
Newton's first law of motion
Inertia is the tendency of an object that is at rest to stay at rest or an object that is in motion to continue that motion.

Inertia. Also described in Newton's First law of Motion.
First of all, it's inertia. Inertia is the tendency of matter to resist a change in motion, hence, an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion. The bigger an object is, the more inertia it has.
The tendency is called inertia. The inertia of an object is directly related to its mass, since the effect of any given force depends on the mass and motion of the object (and whether the force acts with or against any other existing forces).
Intertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its velocity: if an object is at rest, it has the tendency to remain at rest; if it is moving, the tendency is to keep moving with the same velocity. That is what happens if no forces act on the object; if forces act on the object, including gravitation, friction, and others, its velocity will change.
