Newton’s 1st Law: Law of Inertia
What does Newton’s 1st Law
of Motion say?
1. All objects have ________________
(the tendency to __________ change
in motion).
2. An object will only change its motion
if ___________________ forces act
on it .
What is Inertia?
Tendency for an object to ___________
_____________________________.
Objects with ______________ have
__________________which means it is
harder to change their velocity.
Objects with ______________ have
__________________ so it is easier to
change their velocity.
