Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest. It is proportional to an object's mass.
Newton described the concept of Inertia in Newton's Third Law.
In laymen's terms, inertia means things in motion want to keep moving, while things at rest want to stay at rest.
Velocity is is the measurement of the rate and direction of change in the position of an object. So, it's distance divided by time. In addition, velocity also includes direction, so even if you are moving in a circle at the SAME SPEED, your velocity is CONSTANTLY CHANGING.
Inertia and Velocity are not very similar.
They do not directly affect each other and are therefore two separate ideas.

What resist change in velocity?
Inertia.
Do Objects with more mass have more inertia?
Yes, inertia=mass*velocity
How are inertia and momentum related?
More or less the same thing. Different ways to describe similar effects of movement and resistance.
What is inetira?
INERTIA? the resistance to change in velocity is called inertia. for example you are moving with velocity and something tends to stop your velocity of your lower body part you will fall forward because the upper part of your body is still in motion this is called inertia. hope u understand
What is the measure of an object's mass and velocity called?
Inertia.
Objects with more mass have ---- inertia?
Yes, inertia=mass*velocity
What affects inertia?
Gravity affects inertia. The lower the gravity, the more inertia.
What resist change in velocity?
Inertia.
An objects resistance to change in motion?
Inertia. Inertia applies to both increases and decreases in velocity.
How do you pronouce inertia?
inertia in-er-sha amount of resistance to change in velocity
Do Objects with more mass have more inertia?
Yes, inertia=mass*velocity
Can one body have any number of moment of inertia?
It depends upon the velocity with which the object is travelling.... Higher the velocity, higher will be the moment of inertia.....
What is the meaning of law of inertia?
The Law of Inertia means , No force, No Acceleration (change in velocity) and Vice verso No acceleration (change in velocity), No Force.
How are inertia and momentum related?
More or less the same thing. Different ways to describe similar effects of movement and resistance.
What is the mass and velocity of an object called?
Inertia.
Is average speed the same thing as inertia?
No. Inertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its velocity.
Is motion the same with inertia?
Inertia resists the change in its motion/ velocity, and is proportional to its mass.
