Question

if in a gravitational of an object for instance earth any other object is kept at rest will that object remain in rest or attain any velocity?

Answer 1

in a gravitational field the object would remain in rest.But in cases of very heavier object for example-earth , the object may attain velocity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Newton's first law of motion describes inertia. According to this law, a body at rest tends to stay at rest, and a body in motion tends to stay in motion, unless acted on by a net external force.
