We are subject to the concept of inertia and experience such an idea every single day. Here are some examples.

1. Suddenly accelerating during a car ride makes the driver and the riders feel pushed up against their seats. Inertia explains this phenomenon quite clearly.

2. Turning around a corner while driving makes the driver and the riders move quite counter-intuitively. For example, if a car turns right, every person in the car is pushed to left and vice versa; inertia explains this phenomenon.

3. We usually shake the bottle of ketchup or hit it in order to get that last bit of ketchup remaining in the bottle. We do both of these things to move the ketchup as the remaining bit of ketchup is subject to the idea of inertia when shaken or hit.

4. After sprinting for a while, you must apply a backward force in order to stop. Yet if you do not apply this backward force, you will continue moving forward. If you stop running suddenly, you will for a second move at the speed at which you were running before. Inertia helps to explain this phenomenon.

5. If a bus suddenly stops and you aren't holding onto a support, you will be pushed to the front of the bus. Your mass and the concept of inertia helps to explain such a phenomenon.

What is inertia and give examples?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. For example, a heavy object is harder to push or stop because it has more inertia. Inertia also explains why objects in motion tend to stay in motion and objects at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

A spinning top continuing to rotate unless an external force stops it due to its rotational inertia. A book on a shelf staying in place until a pull or push is exerted on it because of its inertia of direction. A person moving forward when a bus suddenly stops due to their inertia of motion. A ball rolling down a hill maintaining its speed until friction slows it down because of its inertia of motion.
