BBC
Bbc: Gcse Bitesize: Forces, Acceleration and Newton's Laws Aqa
This lesson focuses on Newton's First Law: an object remains in the same state of motion unless a resultant force acts on it. If the resultant force on an object is zero, this means: a stationary object stays stationary; a moving object...

Sophia Learning
Sophia: Newton's First Law: Lesson 1
This lesson introduces Newton's First Law, that inertia causes objects at rest to remain at rest, and objects in motion to remain in motion. It is 1 of 3 in the series titled "Newton's First Law."
Sophia Learning
Sophia: Newton's First Law: Lesson 2
This lesson introduces Newton's First Law, that inertia causes objects at rest to remain at rest, and objects in motion to remain in motion. It is 2 of 3 in the series titled "Newton's First Law."
