motion

true
false
Question 1
Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an external force.
Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, which includes keeping the same rate of motion.
A rocket ship's motion involves changes due to forces (thrust, gravity, etc.), which is more related to Newton's Second and Third Laws. Newton's First Law is about an object's state without external force changes.
