If you are trying to get ketchup out of the bottle, the best way to do it is to turn the bottle upside down and give the bottle a sharp upward smack, forcing the bottle rapidly upward. Think about what subsequently happens to the ketchup, which is initially at rest, and use Newton's first law to explain why this technique is so successful.

    A body remains at rest or in motion unless or until an external force is applied. This is called Law of Inertia

    Now When ketchup bottle is turned upside down and smack is applied to it, it causes the ketchup to start moving thereby disturbing its motion of rest and provide its motion.

    And according to the first law state of rest is broken by applying an external force.
