What is newtons first law of motion What term summarizes this law?
newton's first law of motion is; objects at rest stay at rest and objects in motion stay in motion unless an outside force acts upon it. A term that summarizes this law could be that when a wheelchair is standing still, it is not in motion, the only way that the wheelchair can move is unless an outside force (person) acts on it, causing the wheel chair to change distance.
Do resting object have interia?
A which mass has resistance to a force acting on it has inertia. Ah, but then the amount of inertia must be qualified based on other characteristics. So it's a tricky question. You could quickly say yes, but not always easy to quantify unless you know the force (in Newtons) that is required to change it from the state of rest to motion. Gravity is a nice example of inertia using the force equation F= (Gm m')/r 2 Where G is the gravitational constant. m and m' are two masses, and r is the distance between them. F is the force required to move the objects toward each other, In the case of a large mass like earth a soccer ball is a small mass and if held by a player we know that there it has inertia, we know the force of gravity.
What is newtons first law of motion and what does it state?
The first law deals with forces and changes in velocity. For just a moment, let us imagine that you can apply only one force to an object. That is, you could choose push the object to the right or you could choose to push it to the left, but not to the left and right at the same time, and also not up and to the right at the same time, and so on. Under these conditions the first law says that if an object is not pushed or pulled upon, its velocity will naturally remain constant. This means that if an object is moving along, untouched by a force of any kind, it will continue to move along in a perfectly straight line at a constant speed.
How does dropping an object in a moving vehicle demonstrate the law of inertia?
The act of dropping an object in a moving vehicle demonstrates the law of inertia due to the fact that the object does not go flying to the back of your car. This is because the object holds the same velocity as the car. How this can be proven is you can take a penny and speed up just as you drop the coin, the penny should shift backwards from your point of reference. If you slow down just the opposite will happen, the coin will shift forward. If you take a right turn the coin will seem to move to the left and vice versa. Inertia is the tendency of an object to move according to Newton's First Law of Motion as demonstrated in these examples. Archimedes had thought that if you toss and object in the air while in motion it should fall to the same spot it was thrown directly up; the name he have to this motion was natural motion but what more could you expect from a philosopher rather than a physicist.
How is intera involved in newton's first law of motion?
An object's inertia is the object's resistance to change in motion.Newton stated this principle as his first law of motion:"Every body persists in its state of being at rest or of moving uniformly straight forward, except insofar as it is compelled to change its state by force impressed."Restated:"An object that is at rest will stay at rest until an unbalanced force acts upon it. An object that is in motion will not change its velocity until an unbalanced force acts upon it."
Could someone give me a word that means the same as An object on motion will tend to stay in motion?
Inertia,
How does inertia affect an object?
Inertia guarantees that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in that same motion, so long as there is no external force acting on that object. Alternately, there could be force acting on it as long as that force adds up to zero.

How is inertia use in a scientific sentence?
Inertia is a property of matter that describes its tendency to maintain its current state of motion unless acted upon by an external force. An example of inertia in a scientific sentence could be: "The large mass of an object results in greater inertia, making it harder to change its velocity."
Air in motion is called?
When Air is in motion it is called the wind. It Could also be called a breeze or wind current
What is the tendency of a moving object to keep moving?
An object that is IN motion tends to remain that way. Check out Newton's laws of thermodynamics. Basically, he postulated that things moving tend to keep moving, things stationary tend to stay stationary, and left to themselves, most thing degrade into chaos. This might sound silly, but you have to examine the statement a bit more. It's 'outside' forces, like gravity, friction, etc that act on objects to alter their movement or lack thereof. If you can imagine, for example a large glass bowl that has a vacuum inside it, and somehow, you could negate the force of gravity and friction as well. If you set a top spinning in the bowl, it would continue to spin forever - no friction to slow it down, no gravity to cause it to tip over, no air to cause drag, etc etc.
What is any change in an object's motion called?
The change in an object's motion, is simply force.The object cannot change motion unless acted upon by an outside force. For example: If I throw a baseball, it will never stop unless acted upon by gravity (or the outside force). Or the outside force could be it smacking into a wall or your friends head.
What does it mean when they resist being set into motion?
Resistance to being set into motion can be a sign of static friction, where the object is being held back by surface roughness or other factors. It could also indicate a lack of external force being applied to overcome inertia and initiate movement.
What do you call a force that maintains motion?
It could be called superfluous. No force is necessary to maintain motion.
What is the relation between force and mass given by Newton's II law of gravitation?
In short Form, Inertia.(I could be confusing it with 1 or 3, but im pretty sure its right)Objects in motion tend to stay in motion
Inertia is a force?
Put simply, inertia is the measure of an object's reluctance to change its state of motion. The object's state of motion may be stationary or flying through space at 20,000 km/hr. The unit for measuring inertia in the SI is the same as for mass: the Kilogram. Inertia (mass) can be expected to increase when an object is traveling at relativistic (near the speed of light) speeds.Supervisor's note: The following answer is looking for a clear-headed makeover.Inertia is NOT a force because Inertia just is the resistance to change in motion. An object's inertia never changes.Here is something to think about so you can answer the question yourself...If you slide a pencil on the floor away from any object that could block it the pencil still stops. Do you think it is because gravity or inertia did it? No. The thing is inertia is just like the Law of conservation. All objects,energy, etc. follow it but inertia is not A FORCE that stops a car when it hits a wall. It is an outside force like friction which is what stoped the pencil from countinuing to slide on the ground. An object's inertia can change but not it's amount, because there is no amount of inertia because like i said before inertia is like a law, all objects have inertia (meaning they all follow the rule of inertia) If there were no other outside force like gravity and friction then when we could not accelarate and there would be no inertia. I know this paragraph makes no sence but to me this is how i look at inertia. As a law or property of matter and not a force. One last thing to think about. Does inertia change anything... if so write a disscusion and tell me what you think it changes and if a car crashes DID INERTIA CAUSE THAT...
Can you provide an example problem illustrating the concept of moment of inertia?
Moment of inertia is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotational motion. An example problem illustrating this concept could be calculating the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder rotating around its central axis. The formula for the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder is I (1/2) m r2, where m is the mass of the cylinder and r is the radius. By plugging in the values for mass and radius, you can calculate the moment of inertia of the cylinder.
