Part 2 - Determine if the following statements are true or false. 7. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist motion.
8. Newton’s first law of motion is also called the law of acceleration.
9. If an object is at rest, inertia will keep it at rest.
10. The speed of an object changes only when it is acted on by an unbalanced force.
11. When you are moving at a high rate of speed, having a larger mass makes is harder to
stop.
12. Newton’s first law of motion applies only to objects that are already moving.
