This is based on Newton's first law of motion which states that an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity and in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This means that an object in motion doesn't require a force to maintain its motion, but rather needs a force to cause a change in its motion (e.g. to slow down or change direction).
