No. An object that has a lot of mass and is hard to move has inertia.

A moving object that has a lot of inertia will?

move like jagger


What word means the unwillingness of an object to move or if the object is moving to changethe speed or get it to stop?

Inertia


What makes an object to move?

Objects naturally move due to their inertia. It takes a force to change that.


What exactly is inertia?

Inertia is the resistance of motion of an object. The more inertia, the harder it is to move something. The less inertia, the easier it is to move. Take a bowling ball and a marble. The marble can be flicked by the finger, because it has less inertia. The bowling ball takes the entire hand because it has more inertia than the marble. According to Newton's laws, an object that is moving tends to continue in motion. A moving object has inertia as it has Mass and Velocity. An object that is not moving requires a Force exerted on the Mass to start it moving.


What is the transfer of energy to an object using a force that causes the object to move in the other direction of the force?

Inertia.


What is the definiton of inertia?

inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest, or to continue to move in the same direction at constant speed. [physics]


What is it called when the more of of this an object has the more force it takes to move it?

Mass or inertia.


The natural tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion with an constant velocity is called?

Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object remains at a constant velocity unless it has an unbalanced force acting upon it. That constant velocity includes zero, which means that a stationary object with no force applied to it will not move. Since velocity includes direction, then a moving object with no force applied to it will continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed.That tendency is called inertia.

What does it mean to stay an object has an inertia?

It means the object has resistance to being acted on by an unbalanced force and moved. Like when you push something heavy, it doesnt move very far due to inertia. Inertia increases as Mass increases.


How do forces change a movement of an object?

inertia affects it. A force can move anything depending on its strength. Inertia states that an object at rest wants to stay at rest, and an object in motion wants to stay in motion. They alter the courses and movement of objects that have less force than the force trying to move the object
