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.

What is newtons first law of motion in a summary?

Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion continues in motion with a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force. This means that objects will maintain their state of motion unless a force causes a change.
