That sounds pretty much like Newton's first law of motion, sometimes called

the "law of inertia", so I'm going to say "True and notfalse".

Does the Law of Inertia state that a body remains at rest or continues in a state of uniform motion unless a force act on it?

The Law of Inertia states that a body continues in a state of uniform motion unless a force act on it.


Does the law of Inertia state that a body remains at rest or continues in a state of uniform motion unless a force acts on it?

Yes, the law of inertia states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This is also known as Newton's first law of motion.


Was the law of inertia states that a body remains at rest or continues in a states of uniform motion unless a force acts on it?

Yes, that is correct. The law of inertia, also known as Newton's First Law of Motion, states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.


Could newtons third law of motion be called law of inertia?

No, inertia is derived from the first law: The velocity of a body remains constant unless the body is acted upon by an external forcein this case, velocity is 0m/s and therefore remains constantinertia also exist in moving objects as well.


What is 1st law of newton of motion?

Newtons 1st law states that every body continues to be in its own state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight path unless it is compelled by any external force to change its state. If a force is exerted on a body the body will move but without force it will not move.

When forces are balanced what type of motion results?

When forces are balanced, the object remains in a state of rest or continues moving at a constant velocity, also known as uniform motion.


The result of balanced forces?

When two forces are balanced, their magnitudes and directions are equal and opposite. As a result, there is no overall change in the object's motion - it remains at rest or continues moving at a constant velocity.


Does direction affect uniform motion?

No, direction does not affect uniform motion. Uniform motion is characterized by constant speed and direction, so as long as the speed remains constant, changing direction will not impact the uniform motion.


Does the Law of Inertia state that a body remains at rest or continues in a state of uniform motion unless a force act on it?

The Law of Inertia states that a body continues in a state of uniform motion unless a force act on it.


WHAT IS THE MEANING OF NON UNIFORM MOTION?

Non-uniform motion refers to an object moving at varying speeds and/or changing direction during its motion. This means that the object's velocity is not constant, unlike uniform motion where the velocity remains the same throughout.


How does the equation of motion change for an object moving with uniform motion?

For an object moving with uniform motion, the equation of motion does not change. The equation remains the same as it describes the relationship between an object's position, velocity, and time regardless of whether the motion is uniform or non-uniform. Uniform motion implies constant velocity, so the acceleration term in the equation of motion is zero.


What is the acceleration of uniform motion?

Uniform motion means "constant speed in a straight line".That's another way of saying "zero acceleration".


What is uniform and non uniform motion?

Think of uniform as everything moving together. For example, in uniform circular motion describes the motion of a body traversing a circular path at constant speed. The distance of the body from the axis of rotation remains constant at all times. If the motion was non-uniform the distance of the body from the axis of rotation would vary.


What happens to an objects motion when it leaves uniform circular motion?

In UCM, the object's angular speed remains constant, and it maintains a conserved trajectory. When it leaves this motion, the angular speed of the object will either increase or decrease, entering different kinds of motion, and its trajectory will probably vary


In uniform circular motion quantities are constant?

In uniform circular motion, the speed of the object remains constant, but the velocity changes direction continuously. The acceleration is directed towards the center of the circle (centripetal acceleration) and its magnitude remains constant. The object moves in a circular path at a constant speed.


Is it possible for a person to move with uniform motion?

Yes, it is possible for a person to move with uniform motion if they travel in a straight line with a constant speed. Uniform motion means that the velocity of the person remains constant over time, without any changes in speed or direction.


What is newtonns first law of motion?

An object remains in constant uniform motion unless acted upon by a net external force.
