Inertia notes IPS

What does it mean to “Change an objects state of motion” ? ? ? • If an object is STOPPED changing its motion means _________ • If an object is MOVING changing its motion means ______

Inertia an object at rest tends to remain at rest, and an object in motion tends to remain in motion. Inertia is the resistance of any object to any change in its state of motion

Newton’s first law (law of inertia): Every object continues in a state of rest, or at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted on by an unbalanced force. (Inertia )

Inertia: the tendency of objects to resist changes in their state of rest or motion

Forces Equilibrium Balanced Unbalanced Fnet = 0 Fnet ≠ 0 Objects in motion tend to stay in motion. Objects at rest tend to stay at rest Constant Velocity v=0 At Rest v≠ 0 When you really push, Inertia Everything has inertia a little or a lot Fnet in direction of motion Constant Motion Speeding up things accelerate Acceleration Fnet in opposite direction as motion Slowing down

Think about it…share with your neighbor • What are examples of times when objects stay at rest or in motion at a constant rate? • What are examples of times when objects do not stay at rest or in motion at a constant rate?
