Why does a heavy thing go further than a lighter thing?
because of inertia if the mass of the object is more than inertia also be more
Which of the following has more inertia than a 100 g object on Earth?
Any object that has a mass greater than 100 gram, will also have more inertia. By the way whether it is on Earth or not is irrelevant. If you take a 100-gram mass anywhere else, it will still have 100 gram; and the inertia (which depends on the mass) will also be the same.
Does a heavier object have more inertia than a lighter object?
Yes because according to newton 1st law
Does a heavier object always have more inertia than a lighter object?
Inertia is "rotary momentum"; an object's ability to continue spinning when a decelerating force is applied.Just as a heavy object takes more effort to stop from the same speed as a light object, so does a heavy object take more effort to stop from turning at the same speed as a light object.So assuming they are turning at the same angular velocity, the heavier one has a larger inertia. Otherwise, remember that inertia is also proportional to angular velocity.
True or False Lighter objects have less inertia than heavy objects?
True. An object in motion tends to stay in motion, and an object at rest tends to stay at rest.

Does a cart loaded with groceries have more inertia because it has more mass than an empty cart?
True. Mass is the only way to measure inertia. more mass = more inertiaYes, a cart loaded with groceries has more inertia because it has more mass than the empty cart. The inertia of any object is determined by the amount of its mass.Truetrue
Why moment of inertia is also called rotational inertia?
Because it is a measure of the "resistence" of an object to be accelerated in its rotation. An object with a big moment of inertia is more difficult to increase/decrease its angular velocity (speed of rotation), than an object with a low moment of inertia.

What would happen to an object in orbit around a planet if the planet's force of gravity were stronger than the object's inertia?
The object would crash into the planet.

Yes because according to newton 1st law
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 exactly is inertia?
Inertia is the resistance of motion of an object. The more inertia, the harder it is to move something. The less inertia, the easier it is to move. Take a bowling ball and a marble. The marble can be flicked by the finger, because it has less inertia. The bowling ball takes the entire hand because it has more inertia than the marble. According to Newton's laws, an object that is moving tends to continue in motion. A moving object has inertia as it has Mass and Velocity. An object that is not moving requires a Force exerted on the Mass to start it moving.
What would happen to an object in orbit around planets if the planets force of gravity were stronger than the objects inertia?
The object would crash into the planet.

List 2 unique and different examples of an object having inertia?
You, and I are two unique objects and we both have inertia. Anything with mass has inertia. I probably have more inertia than you, because my mass is about 113.63 kg, and you are likely to have less mass than that.
Why does a semi truck have more inertia?
Inertia is a measure of how resistant an object's motion is to changing that motion, and is related to the mass of an object. Increase mass and inertia increases; decrease mass and inertia decreases. For an object to have greater inertia, it must therefore have greater mass. Semi- trucks are very massive vehicles, much more than others normally found, so they will have more inertia than anything else driven on roads. An average car or light truck might have a mass of 1 to 2 tonnes; semis usually have many tens of tonnes mass.
