Newton's first law of motion describes the resistance of an object to change in the speed and direction of its motion. The law also holds that objects will resist being put into motion. This concept is described as inertia. This free selection from If You Build It They Will Learn offers a demonstration of inertia with a corresponding lesson. Also included: Table of Contents, Preface and, Introduction section.
