The principle of inertia is one of the fundamental principles in classical physics that are still used today to describe the motion of objects and how they are affected by the applied forces on them. <\/span>Inertia comes from the Latin word, iners, meaning idle, sluggish.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, we will discuss inertia, its concept and will focus on the examples of law of inertia in everyday life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inertia is a passive property and does not enable a body to do anything except oppose such active agents as forces and torques.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the surface of the Earth, inertia is often masked by gravity and the effects of friction and air resistance, both of which tend to decrease the speed of moving objects (commonly to the point of rest). This misled the philosopher Aristotle to believe that objects would move only as long as force was applied to them.<\/span><\/p>\n
