What is the inerta of a moving object?
it is the property of a body by virtue of which it remains or tends to remain in the state of unifrom motion in a straight line unless unbalanced forces iact upon it
How a body can have angular momentum when it is moving in straight line?
If a body is moving in a straight line then it would have angular momentum about any point which is not along its line of motion. The magnitude of the angular momentum would be its velocity times the perpendicular distance between the line of motion and the point.
When are you most aware of motion in a moving vehicle--when its moving steadily in a straight line or when it is accelerating?
straight line
What can you say about the motion of a body if its displacement time graph is a straight line?
The object is moving at a constant speed.
What is moving perpendicular?
Moving directly straight either horizontally or vertically. As if walking on a straight line.
What is the tendency called of a moving object to continue moving in a straight line or a stationary object to remain in place?
Inertia

inertia
When a body moving along a straight line is accelerating is it always increasing?
yes
How a body can have angular momentum when it is moving in straight line?
If a body is moving in a straight line then it would have angular momentum about any point which is not along its line of motion. The magnitude of the angular momentum would be its velocity times the perpendicular distance between the line of motion and the point.
When an body is said to be in uniform motin?
For the body to be in uniform motin it must be moving in the straight line path.

straight line
What can you say about the motion of a body if its displacement time graph is a straight line?
The object is moving at a constant speed.
When do you consider a body moving at a constant velocity?
When it's moving in a straight line at a constant speed. And it has nothing to do with my judgment or opinion. That's the definition.
Is it impossible when an object moving in a straight line has no acceleration?
If a body is moving at constant velocity in a straight line, the acceleration is zero and the net force acting on it is zero. F = ma F = m x 0 F = 0

What is moving perpendicular?
Moving directly straight either horizontally or vertically. As if walking on a straight line.
