Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inertia is the property of an object to resist changes in its motion, whether that be staying at rest or continuing to move at a constant speed along a straight line. Velocity refers to the speed and direction of an object's motion. Acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity changes. Equilibrium refers to a state in which all forces acting on an object balance out, resulting in no net force and no acceleration. Force refers to a push or pull on an object that can cause a change in its motion.
