Newton's First Law of Motion

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Unbalanced Forces

ALWAYS cause a change in motion. They are NOT equal in size, but ARE opposite in direction.
