1. newton's first law of motion is also known as the law of

The law of inertia.

Explanation:

Newton's first law states "that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless acted upon by unbalanced force."

It is also known as the law of inertia, because inertia is the tendency to change, or to not. This directly relates to the law, because the law is saying that an object will stay at rest unless another force acts upon it, causing change.
