Question

What is the law of inertia? Give an example of inertia in action.

Answer 1

Law of inertia is sometimes called Newtons First law of motion.

Newtons first law of motion states that"A body will continue to its state of rest or motion unless external force acted upon it.

Answer 2

The law of inertia is another name for Newton's first law. Newton's first law states that an object will not change its motion or direction unless a force acts on it. An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion if there isn't any force acting on them.

Example: When a car uses its brakes to stop, you sometimes feel like you are sliding forward. That is because the inertia keeps you moving forward, even though the car stopped.
