Inertiaalilain
Inertiaalilain, also known as the law of inertia, is a fundamental principle in classical physics that describes the behavior of objects in motion or at rest. It is one of Newton's laws of motion and is stated as follows: "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This law introduces the concept of inertia, which 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.
The law of inertia is closely related to Newton's first law of motion, which states that an
The principle of inertia is also applicable to rotating objects. In a rotating frame of reference, an
The law of inertia has numerous practical applications, including the design of vehicles, the operation of
