Answer:

because the static friction is higher than the kinetic friction

Step-by-step explanation:

Inertia is resistance to motion. Object resist changing its current motion or the rest position. This is the Newton's first law of motion

apart from this as the graph shows , the force needed to move when object at rest is higher than the force to change the motion of a moving body . this is because

static friction > kinetic friction

  • static friction is the friction acts on a object resting on a rough surface
  • kinetic friction is the friction acts on an object when it is moving on a rough surface
