Answer :
Answer:
a. Newton's First Law
Explanation:
Newton's Laws
Law of Inertia (#1)
Unless an external force is acted, an object in motion is likely to stay in motion and, inversely, an object at rest will likely stay at rest.
To sum it up, an object is reluctant to change its current motion.
Law of Acceleration (#2)
Acceleration is directly related to the mass of an object and the force acted upon it.
A formula is commonly associated with this, [tex]F=ma[/tex] or [tex]a=\dfrac{F}{m}[/tex], where a is acceleration (in meters per second squared), F is the force (in newtons) and m is the object's mass (in kilograms).
Law of Action and Reaction (#3)
Every action acted upon an object has an equal and opposite reaction to the object that administered the action.
For example, pushing against a wall will not only exert a force onto the wall but, also exert a force, of equal magnitude ("intensity"), onto the person.

The questions mentions the "state of uniform motion" which correlates to the first law!
The statement aligns with a. Newton's First Law, which describes the principle of inertia.
The statement 'Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it' satisfies Newton's First Law of Motion.
Newton's First Law, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.
For example, a book on a table will remain stationary unless someone pushes it, and a ball rolling on the ground will continue to roll unless friction or another force slows it down. The correct option is a.
