- Newton’s first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest, or, if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force. This is also known as the law of inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or remain in motion. Inertia is related to an object’s mass.

Revision notes on 5.7.5 Inertia for the AQA GCSE Physics syllabus, written by the Physics experts at Save My Exams.
Inertia is the tendency for an object at rest to remain at rest, or for a moving object to remain in motion in a straight line with constant speed. This key property of objects was first described by Galileo.
UCSD Physics 10 Forces Cause Acceleration • Acceleration is proportional to the applied force: The larger the force, the more an object will accelerate, in the direction of the applied force. • Mass is inertia, i.e., reluctance to accelerate, so for the same force, more massive objects experience smaller acceleration than less massive ones ...
Define mass and inertia. Understand Newton's first law of motion. Experience suggests that an object at rest will remain at rest if left alone, and that an object in motion tends to slow down and stop unless some effort is made to keep it moving.
Law of inertia states that an object will continue to be either in a state of motion or in a state of rest unless an external force acts on it. Know more about the law of inertia along with examples @BYJU’S.
