Asked by Amy
*Can someone please help me with this question. I'm supposed to be studing for a test and I can't seem to figure out this problem at all. I think It's FRICTION, but I'm not sure.
**If you flip a coin in the air as you travel in an airplane, the coin keeps up with you. This is the idea of _____ in action.
***Also did Aristotle understand the idea of Inertia or was Galileo the first to come up with the term??
****Thanks so much for the help -Amy-

Aristotle did not understand inertia at all. Galileo did. The word is of Latin origin. Greeks never used it
The word inertia also fits well in your blank space
