Answer:

Law of inertia is Newton's first law of motion..

Step-by-step explanation:

It means that a body will tend to be in it's motion or tend to move in a straight line unless any external force is acted upon it..

Eg: while you are travelling in bus.. If breaks are suddenly applied your body falls forward because you were in motion with bus but it tries to be in motion when breaks are applied...

An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by a force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a force.
