What is the national tendancy of an object that is in motion?
An object remains in constant, uniform motion until acted upon by an external force.
What is a change in an object's motion called?
A change in speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". If an object's speed or direction of motion changes, then the object is "accelerated".
What is the answer of inertia?
Inertia is the tendancy of an object to stay in rest or in motion. Newtons 1st law was the law of inertia.
What is motion in which the velocity of the moving object does change?
That's called "accelerated motion".
Can unbalanced force change an objects motion?
If the group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object's motion always changes. The change is called "acceleration".
