Newton's first law is sometimes called the law of inertia. Whether you call it that or not, the first law basically defines the characteristic of inertia.
The law is stated in various ways, but one way is like this.
A body at rest will remain at rest or a body in motion will continue in a straight line with the same velocity unless acted on by an external force.
That is the law. The second law says what happens of you have an external force.
The point is, that the first law introduced the idea that inertia is a natural state of being and an inherent law of nature. There is no magic, things don't spontaneously move around for no cause.

according to first law of motion a body continues to be in a state of rest or in motion until and unless an external force is applied.Now what is inertia let us take an example :- if you are standing in a moving bus and suddenly brakes are applied you will fall forward.now you can notice that before brakes were applied you were traveling in a state of motion but when brakes are applied i.e. you are made to stop and hence you will fall forward .Hence proved that inertia is related to first law of motion . Hope that helps .

Newton's first law of motion is also known as law of inertia.
talks about the inertia '
Newton's first law of motion states and describes the principleof inertia. But none of his laws of motion illustratesanything.
The law of inertia (it relates to an object's resistance to the change in motion)
Neither is true. It applies to both.
Law of Inertia.
the law of inertia
Newton's first law of motion is also known as law of inertia.
because newton’s 1st law of motion uses a lot of inertia
talks about the inertia '
Newtons first. :^D

The law of inertia (it relates to an object's resistance to the change in motion)
yes they r same
Lawof inertia, without using wiki
This is Newton's First Law of Motion. Objects in motion stay in motion because of inertia (refer to the law of inertia for additional help).
Inertiais important because Newtons first law of motion is often summed up as following: Matter resists any change in motion. Because this property of matter is called Inertia, Newton's law is sometimes called the Law of Inertia.
