What determines the extent of resistance to a change of motion?
The extent of resistance to a change of motion is determined by an objects mass. The mass of the object is measured in kilograms.
What is the resistance of an object to changes in its motion?
Inertia is the resistance of a object to change in its motion
Unit for a measure of resistance to a change of motion?
The inertia. This is directly related to the object's mass.
What is the resistance to motion?
resistance to motion is called inertia
What are three forces that affect the motion of an object are?
Forces can be divided into pushes, pulls and twists. I'm not sure if that is the type of answer you were looking for though. A range of different forces can affect the motion of objects depending on the circumstances e.g. thrust, lift, air resistance, water resistance etc
When you measure an object's resistance to motion you must measure what?
Inertia is an objects resistance to change in motion. Frictional forces resist motion.
What determines the extent of resistance to a change of motion?
The extent of resistance to a change of motion is determined by an objects mass. The mass of the object is measured in kilograms.
Why is the acceleration is faster in small objects than in large objects?
The difference is due to inertia. Inertia is the resistance to a change in motion (acceleration). A more massive object will have greater inertia, and therefore a greater resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a slower acceleration. A less massive object has lower inertia, and therefore less of a resistance to a change in motion, resulting in a faster acceleration.
Is an objects resistance to changing its motion?
"inertia"
What is the resistance of an object to changes in its motion?
Inertia is the resistance of a object to change in its motion
What is the resistance of an object to changes its motion?
Inertia is the resistance of a object to change in its motion
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.
Is velocity a change in an objects motion?
Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.
What is the change in objects position?
The change in an objects position is called motion.
What is the resistance to change motion?
inertia
What acts in the direction opposite of the objects direction in motion?
The resistance of an objects surroundings to its motion. The rugs nape versus a ball rolling across it. Air having to get out of the way of a spinning tennis ball. Resistance. Of course gravity can have a positive or negative influence on an objects motion and vector. Entropy concurs all motion.
Air resistance slows the motion of moving objects?
Yes, yes it does.
