Inertia is the tendency that all objects resist a change in motion


What are the different types of inertia?

The different types of inertia are inertia of rest (tendency of an object to remain at rest), inertia of motion (tendency of an object to continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed), and inertia of direction (tendency of an object to resist changes in its direction of motion).


Which term refers to the tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion?

Inertia. An object at rest, tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion.


The tendency of an object to stay at rest is the object's?

"inertia"


What is inertia of rest and inertia of motion?

Intertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its velocity: if an object is at rest, it has the tendency to remain at rest; if it is moving, the tendency is to keep moving with the same velocity. That is what happens if no forces act on the object; if forces act on the object, including gravitation, friction, and others, its velocity will change.


What are the 3 types of inertia's Explain it?

The three types of inertia are inertia of rest, inertia of motion, and inertia of direction. Inertia of rest is the tendency of an object to remain at rest. Inertia of motion is the tendency of an object to continue moving at a constant velocity. Inertia of direction is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its direction of motion.


What is the tendency for an object to resist changes in motion called?

The tendencyof an object to remain in motion or a rest?

This is known as inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion (including being at rest) unless acted upon by an external force.


What is an object resists movement by a force it is called?

An object that resists movement by a force is called having inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion or rest unless acted upon by an external force.


If an object left Earth which direction will it travel due to inertia and Earths rotation?

That depends, in what direction it is moving initially, and at what speed. Inertia is the tendency to MAINTAIN a velocity.
