Inertia

Definition of inertia

The tendency of an object to resists changes to its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line

Newton First law

Every object continues in its state of rest or uniform speed in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.

Applications of the concept of inertia while picking apples

Shake the branch of the apple tree to get the apples to fall to the ground.
