उत्तर १
According to Newton's first law of motion, if a body is in a state of rest, it will remain in the state of rest, and if the body is in the state of motion, it will remain moving in the same direction with the same speed unless an external force is applied on it.
उत्तर २
According to Newton's first law, everybody continues in its state of rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled by some external force to act otherwise.
