The Law of Inertia is also known as ____
A
the Law of Conservation.
B
Newton’s First Law.
C
the Law of the Land.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -law of inertia, also called Newton’s first law, postulate in physics that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the first law, we understand that an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. The second law states that the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. And finally, the third law states that there is an equal and opposite reaction for every action.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hence we can conclude that another name for Newton’s first law of motion is Galileo’s law of inertia.

Detailed explanation-4: -Newton’s third law states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The third law is also known as the law of action and reaction.
