Modified True or False. Read each statement carefully. Write True if the

statement is correct and Write the correct term if the statement is incorrect. Write

your answer on a separate sheet of paper.

_____1. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist motion.

____2. Newton’s first law of motion is also called the law of acceleration.

____ 3. If an object is at rest, inertia will keep it at rest.

____4. The inertia of an object is determined by its speed

____5. The speed of an object changes only when it is acted on by an

unbalanced force.

_____6. A stationary object resists movement only because of gravity.

_____7. The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion depends on its mass.

_____8. If the net force acting on an object is zero, its inertia is also zero.

_____9. When you are moving at a high rate of speed, inertia makes it to stop.

_____10. Newton’s first law of motion applies to objects that are already moving and

at rest.

_____11. A balanced force is a force in which the net force is greater to zero.

_____12. Unbalanced force causes an object to accelerates.

_____13. Isaac Newton was the first one who developed the idea of inertia.

_____14. In inertia of direction an object will stay moving in the same direction

unless a force acts on it.

_____15. Smooth surfaces has greater friction than rough surfaces.​
