The tendency of an object to remain in its existing state is called its inertia
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The explanation for the given correct answer is that inertia is indeed the tendency of an object to remain in its existing state. This means that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. Inertia is a fundamental property of matter and is described by Newton's first law of motion. Therefore, the statement "The tendency of an object to remain in its existing state is called its inertia" is true.
