Solution

Dear student,

Inertia is the resistance, of any physical object, to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion.

Or

It is a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.


Consider example situations in figure
