The best example of Newton's 1st Law (inertia) from the options provided is:
A bird takes flight from the ground.
This example illustrates inertia because it emphasizes the change in motion as the bird moves from a state of rest (on the ground) to a state of motion (flying). Newton's 1st Law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
