Anything that has mass and exhibits inertia?
Anything that has mass is called matter. Matter also takes up space and exhibits the properties of inertia, that is, resisting a change in its state of motion.
Explain the term inertia?
Inertia is the energy contained in an objects motion. Its' potential to do work. A spinning top has inertia as does the World or any planet. This spinning motion can be made to do work and slows as it gives up its' energy. Mass plus spin or gravity generate power.
Asteroids have been moving though space for billion of years what keeps them moving?
inertia keeps moving it!:)
What best defines what matter is?
The most essential and defining characteristic of matter is inertia.
Does inertia is the same as work?
Work (W) is the product of force (F) times distance (D): W = F x D "Inertia" just means that you got a shove and nothing prevented you from stopping. You have potential energy, but you haven't done work until you slam into something.
Do you have less inertia in outer space?
No you more inertia in outer space than anywhere else.
Does an astronaut in space have inertia?
Yep, if an astronaut has mass, they will have inertia.
Do planets have inertia?
YES PALNETS DO HAVE INERTIA ANYTHING THAT HAS MASS OR TAKES UP SPACE HAS INERTIA.OBJECTS WITH GREATER MASS HAVE GREATER INERTIA.
How a flag can fly when there is no air in space?
Just because there's no air, doesn't mean that other forces are not at work. It mainly moves because of inertia.
How is orbit and gravity related?
When it an object in space in moving it will keep moving at the same speed with the property of inertia. Then moon is an object that has inertia. Gravity keeps the moon from going off into outer space but inertia keeps the moon from crashing into the moon. Gravity and inertia have to be balanced in order for an object to remain in orbit.
What keeps the probe moving in space after the rocket no longer pushes it?
Inertia.
Does inertia happen anytime and anywhere?
Yes. Even underwater, even in space.
A space probe may be carried by a rocket into outer space what keep the probe moving after the rocket no longer pushes it?
Inertia.
What kinds of forces do you think the space shuttle has to overcome?
Inertia and Earth's gravitational pull
Which force keeps the space station in orbit?
The force of gravity keeps the space station in orbit as well as inertia that keeps the space station moving in a straight line.
