Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Unless an object at rest is acted upon by a force, it stays at rest due to its
A
matter
B
inertia
C
friction
D
gravity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Inertia is the tendency of all objects to resist any change in motion. Inertia causes a moving object to stay in motion at the same velocity (speed and direction) unless a force acts on it to change its speed or direction. It also causes an object at rest to stay at rest.

Detailed explanation-2: -Newton’s First Law of Motion states that a body at rest will remain at rest unless an outside force acts on it, and a body in motion at a constant velocity will remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an outside force.

Detailed explanation-3: -Newton’s First Law: Inertia Newton’s first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

Detailed explanation-4: -Newton’s First Law is the law of inertia. An object with no net forces acting on it which is initially at rest will remain at rest. If it is moving, it will continue to move in a straight line with constant velocity.

Detailed explanation-5: -Newton’s first law states that an object will remain at rest or move at a constant speed in a straight line unless it is acted on by an unbalanced force.
