1. Which of the following best describes the movement of an object at rest if no outside forces act on it? (1 point) It will move due to inertia. Gravity will eventually cause it to move. It will stay at rest due to inertia. It will stay at rest due to gravity.

What do you think?

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

As much as you might think it's gravity, the real answer is inertia, if you have studied chemistry or physics you will learn about this, it's mostly about how much you put into an object to get feedback.

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

@Somy No, because inertia is the resistance of any physical object in the state of the object. Gravity would be a "Factor" and a force applied to it, where inertia is saying that if a force acts on it, like gravity, it will do this and produce this much energy or speed. It's hard to word it, but the correct answer is Inertia.

here a really good source of info about inertia http://physics.tutorvista.com/motion/inertia.html to get more and better idea why @alphadxg is right :D
