How can mass affect an objects inertia and direction of its motion?

Mass is the amount of material in an object. The more material in an object, the more material you have to get moving before the object itself moves. Have a friend pitch you one Baseball. You will notice the recoil of the bat. Ducktape 2 or 3 baseballs togeter and have your friend pitch them to you. The recoil will increase significantly because you have to change the direction of more objects. The more objects, the more mass.

What keeps moving objects going in their direction of motion?
inertia
How does gravity keep objects in motion?
It doesn't. It will change an objects direction and/or speed but its inertia that keeps it moving.
What is the tendency of objects to resist change in motion?
Inertia.
The property of objects that resists change in motion is called?
The property of objects that resists changes in motion is called inertia.
An object wants to mantain its state of motion because it has what?
This is Newton's First Law of Motion. Objects in motion stay in motion because of inertia (refer to the law of inertia for additional help).
What keeps moving objects going in their direction of motion?
inertia
The resistance of an object to changes in its motion?
The resistance of an object to changes in its motion is known as inertia. Changes in an objects motion include changes in its speed and direction.
How does gravity keep objects in motion?
It doesn't. It will change an objects direction and/or speed but its inertia that keeps it moving.
Is an objects resistance to changing its motion?
"inertia"
The defention of inertia?
Inertia is the tendency of all objects to resist change in motion.
An objects resistance to change in motion?
Inertia. Inertia applies to both increases and decreases in velocity.
What is the tendency for objects to resist changes in the motion?
Inertia.
What is the tendency of objects to resist change in motion?
Inertia.
The property of objects that resists change in motion is called?
The property of objects that resists changes in motion is called inertia.
What are the kinds of inertia?
There are actually 3 kinds of inertia. They are as follows : 1. Inertia of Rest 2. Inertia of Motion 3. Inertia of Direction But nowadays people consider that there are 2 kinds of inertia , inertia of rest and inertia of motion.
Is inertia a negative force?
More than a force, it really is the law in which objects in motion stay in motion and objects at rest stay at rest.
What is the tendency of objects to resist any change in motion?
Inertia
