उत्तर
A book lying on a table will remain placed at the table unless it is displaced by some external force. This is an example of inertia of rest.
A ball rolling on the ground will continue to roll unless the external force, the force of friction between the ball and the ground stops it.

State Newton’s first law of motion. Give two examples to illustrate Newton’s first law of motion.
A plumb bob is hung from the ceiling of a train compartment. If the train moves with an acceleration 'a' along a straight horizontal track , the string supporting the bob makes an angle tan−1 (a/g) with the normal to the ceiling. Suppose the train moves on an inclined straight track with uniform velocity. If the angle of incline is tan−1 (a/g), the string again makes the same angle with the normal to the ceiling. Can a person sitting inside the compartment tell by looking at the plumb line whether the train is accelerating on a horizontal straight track or moving on an incline? If yes, how? If not, then suggest a method to do so.
A particle stays at rest as seen in a frame. We can conclude that

(b) resultant force on the particle is zero
(c) the frame may be inertial but the resultant force on the particle is zero
(d) the frame may be non-inertial but there is a non-zero resultant force
