Inertia is an objects ability to resist motion. I think of inertia as an object's' mass (different from weight). Newton's second law (F = mass times acceleration) describes the interaction between force and an objects ability to resist motion.

The property of objects that resists change in motion is called?
The property of objects that resists changes in motion is called inertia.
Explain what is meant by the term 'mass'?
Mass does not mean density. Density is mass per unit of volume. If, the volume of an object is the unit volume then the measure of its mass and density will be the same.
The property of matter that resists changes in motion is?
inertia
What is the tendency of matter to resist change in motion?
Inertia: the property of matter that resists changes in motion.
What causes change in an objects motion?
Balanced forces that net to zero cause no change in an object motion.
The property of objects that resists change in motion is called?

Do all objects easily accept changes in their state of motion?
All objects resist changes in their state of 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.
