Answer 2

According to newton's first law, we are in motion because a force overcame my inertia.

• Newton's first law states that a body will continue to stay at rest or move under uniform velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
• When a body has a net external force acting on it, only then it can attain an acceleration.
• The external force overcomes the body's tendency to stay a rest (inertia).
• The property of inertia of a body is directly proportional to its mass.
