(N/A) $(i)$ The property of bodies to resist a change in their state of rest or motion is called Inertia.
$(ii)$ According to Newton's second law of motion,the relationship is $F = ma$,where $F$ is force,$m$ is mass,and $a$ is acceleration.
$(iii)$ The product of mass and velocity of a body is called Momentum $(p = mv)$.
$(iv)$ The rate of change of momentum is equal to the applied Force.
$(v)$ $A$ rocket works on the principle of Newton's third law of motion and the law of conservation of linear momentum.
