Mass and Newtons 1st Law
There are a lot of examples that have inertia and newtons 1st law. One example is a beach ball and rock.Even though the beach ball is bigger the rock still weights more.Also a parked car doesnt move unless you move it. The inertia does not want to move. Also according to newtons 1st law as long as the object is at rest it will want to stay at rest.Also when you play soccer the ball will stay at rest until you apply a force to the ball. If i kicked a soccer ball the ball would continue to move if it was a fictionless surface because one the ball started to move it no wants to stay in motion.

inertia
Inertia is all around us. You see inertia in your everyday life and you don't even know it. One place you see inertia is when you are driving a car. You can drive at a 60 mph but once you take your foot off the gas you will start to slow down because of friction. The car will want to move but friction is stopping the car slowly.Also if you roll a ball and the ball hits a wall the ball will stop and go negative acceleration. The ball would of kept moving if there weren't objects to stop the ball.Those are some examples of inertia in real life.
