AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
6 0

answer:

yes

explanation:

densk [106]

Answer:

O inertia

Explanation:

The tendency of a body to maintain its state of motion is inertia.

Inertia is the tendency of a body to remain at rest or in constant motion.

  • According to newtons first law of motion "a body will remain in its state of rest or constant motion unless acted upon by an external force".
  • The tendency of the body to remain in a state of rest or of constant motion is the inertia.
  • Such a body will not want to accelerate or change motion.
