Solution

The correct option is A Newton’s First law
The inertia of a body is the tendency of not changing its static or motional state. Newton's first law says a static body will remain motionless, and a body in motion will stay in motion until a force acts on it. Therefore, newton's first law is associated with inertia and called the law of inertia.
