    a frame of reference is moving with a constant velocity with respect to a inertial frame of reference,then moving frame will be inertial itself?

    Yes, can you show why? Try beginning by showing that if an object is moving with constant velocity [itex] \vec{v} [/itex] in the first frame then it will also move with a constant velocity in the second.
