  • This law states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external net force.
    Law of Inertia or Newton's 1st Law
  • This includes speed and direction.
    velocity
  • A force that slows down an object in motion.
    friction
