One is inertial mass, which is how much you hate your velocity to change, how hard you resist acceleration.

一个是惯性质量,它反映了物体速度改变的难易程度,即保持加速度的难易程度

Mike actually holds the world record for downhill speed skiing for blind person, which is 60 miles an hour.

实际上,迈克是盲人高山滑雪的记录保持者，速度达到了每小时60英里。

That's another way of saying maintaining velocity if it's not acted upon by a force.

这就是不受外力作用时,速度保持不变的另一种说法

You will find that objects that are at constant initial velocity maintain the velocity.

你也会发现原本匀速的物体,依然保持原来的速度

But it's not a big con, because you can set up experiments in free space far from everything, where objects will, in fact, maintain their velocity forever.

但这并不是个反例,因为你可以在一个远离一切的空间里做实验,在那里,物体可以永远保持现有速度

It's in the nature of things to go at a constant velocity.

能保持恒定速度是物体的固有性质

耶鲁公开课 - 基础物理课程节选

The fact that you don't need a force for it to move forever at a given speed in a given direction, that's not obvious, because in daily life you don't see that.

对于物体不需要力的作用就能保持,确定的速度和方向持续运动这一事实,它并非显而易见,因为在日常生活中你看不到这种情况

The Law of Inertia says that, "If a body has no forces acting on it, then it will remain at rest if it was at rest to begin with, or if it had a velocity to begin with, it will maintain that velocity."

惯性定律就是,"如果一个物体不受外力作用,那么静止的物体依然保持静止,如果物体有个初速度,那么就保持此速度不变"
