What else can I help you with?
The tendency for objects to continue moving in a straight line is called?
inertia
What is the tendency of matter to keep moving in the same direction called?
I believe this is known as inertia.
What is inertia and orbital motion?
The natural tendency of an object to not move (if it wasn't moving), or to keep moving (if it was moving). Inertia is the characteristic that a object will want to stay at rest or in motion. You can feel this in a buss when it suddenly moves this is why you get sent backwards.
How does wind exist?
Wind exists because of two main forces: The rotation of the earth, and the heat and light from the sun. The rotation of the earth causes wind because the natural tendency of air molecules is to stay still. The earth essentially is moving, and the air is essentially staying where it is, creating the illusion that the air is moving. This is called "the Coriolis Effect". The Coriolis effect is what causes the constant unchanging winds used by sailing ships. The heat from the sun is responsible for almost all of earth's weather, except for those mentioned above. The sun's heat causes the air molecules to become excited, and lack of heat makes the molecules stand still. Excited molecules expand, and create High Pressure. Still molecules contract and create low pressure. When high pressure air moves in to fill in the slight vacuum created by low pressure air, it creates wind. In short HOT AIR = HIGH PRESSURE COLD AIR = LOW PRESSURE HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO GET TO WHERE THERE IS LESS PRESSURE.
The natural tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion with an constant velocity is called?
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.
When an objects tends to keep moving because it has this quality?
The quality you are referring to is inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity, whether that means staying still or continuing to move at a constant speed in a straight line.
What is the ability to control or stabilize your equilibrium while moving or staying still?
Balance
What does tedency mean?
Tendency means inclination. I have a tendency of staying home tonight.
What is an object doing at the moment it's instantaneous acceleration is zero?
it can be moving at constant velocity or staying still
What direction is the Philippine Mobile belt moving?
It's staying still. A mobile belt is the tectonic boundary between plates.
What is the difference between an inline graphic and a floating graphic?
inline is picture staying still and floating graphic is moving around
What is it called when an object resists change in motion?
It is called inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, whether that's moving in a straight line at a constant speed or staying at rest.
What is the tendency of moving objects to keep moving in a straight line?
It is called inertia.
What is motion is resisted by a property of matter called?
The motion resisted by a property of matter called inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, whether that is staying at rest or moving at a constant velocity.
What is the tendency of any object to maintain concerning inertia?
The tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion (either at rest or moving at a constant velocity) is known as inertia. This property causes objects to resist changes in their motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Moving objects tend to stay in a straight line because of?
Moving objects tend to stay in a straight line due to inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. Unless acted upon by an external force, an object will continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
How do you put inertia in a sentence?
Inertia keeps the planets in a steady balance.
