The inertia of an object is directly proportional to its mass. The greater the mass the greater the inertia and the lower the mass the lower the inertia. This tells us the fat person will have more inertia due to his greater mass and the thin person will have less inertia due to his lower mass.

Is there a relationship between inertia and mass?

mass corresponds to inertia there isn't any mathematical relationship


Is the relationship between mass and inertia positive or negative?

Yes, a positive relationship.


What is the relationship between mass and inertia of an object?

The inertia of a body can be defined as the relunctance of a body to acceleration. The mass of a body can be defined as a measure of the inertia of a body. This is because acceleration = resultant force / mass. So, if mass is greater, the less will be the acceleration of the body and hence the greater the inertia.


What is the relationship between interia and mass in 7th grade level?

Inertia is the resistance to a change in motion. Most likely you've felt this in a car when it speeds up quickly and it feels like you're sinking into the seat back. Or, when the car brakes hard and your body moves forward. The relationship between inertia and mass is that the greater the mass, the greater the inertia.


What is the difference between inertia and mass?

The difference between inertia and mass is that inertia is the resistance to move. And mass is the amount of matter that something is made of.


How are force and inertia related?

Mass is what causes inertia.The relationship between mass and force is given by Newton's Second Law: force = mass x acceleration


What is the relationship between heavy objects an inertia?

Nothing specifically. Inertia is a proprety of matter (as you may know from the Bill Nye the Science Guy intro), and just because there is more mass to an oject doesn't really mean that it would have more inertia. However, other forces such as friction and gravity are spread over an oject, so there would be more friction due to the mass and more downwards force because of gravity + the mass.


What is the relationship between Moment of inertia and radius of gyration?

I believe it is I = mk^2 where k is radius of gyration and m is mass.


What is the relationship between inertia and force?

sorry


How is force and inertia the same?

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 the relationship between acceleration and mass?

well the relationship between mass and force is..........*relationship... Force=mass x acceleration


What is the difference between mass moment of inertia and area moment of inertia?

mass moment of inertia is the property of the body to resist rotation about the given axis where as the area moment of inertia is the resistance to bending about the given axis
