Force and inertia are not the same. They are quite different. They do both have a relationship to the motion of objects having mass.

What is effect on inertia if force is doubled?

effect on inertia of a body if force is double?


Is net force the same as inertia?

No, net force and inertia are not the same. Net force is the overall force acting on an object, taking into account all individual forces. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion, whether that motion is at rest or moving at a constant velocity.


What force will not effect inertia if its force is zero?

Force does not affect inertia in general. Inertia can basically be identified with the mass.


How are momentum and inertia the same?

Momentum and inertia are actually different, inertia is the tendency a body has to maintain a state of rest or uniform motion until acted upon by a external force momentum would be a impelling force or strength.


Is inertia why some things go slower?

It's not the only reason, but the same force will produce less acceleration in a body with more inertia.


Inertia will not be affected when this type of force is zero.?

Inertia will not be affected when "net" or "net force" is zero.


Is inertia balanced or unbalanced force?

-- "Inertia" is not a force. -- There is no such thing as a single balanced force or a single unbalanced force.


Does force affect inertia?

Yes, force affects inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity. When a force is applied to an object, it can change its acceleration and therefore its velocity, which in turn affects its inertia.


Why does inertia have net force?

Inertia itself does not have a net force. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. When a net force acts on an object, it can overcome this inertia and cause the object to accelerate or decelerate.


Is inertia a push or pull?

Neither. Inertia is not a force.


How can inertia be overcome?

Inertia can be overcome by applying an external force to an object. The greater the force applied, the quicker the object's inertia can be overcome. Once the external force is greater than the object's inertia, it will begin to move or change its speed/direction.


Does the inertia from one object pass directly to another object if same mass when hit directly?

No, inertia is the property of a mass that resists force. If one object hits another force, in the form of acceleration, is passed on.
