What is property of things to resist changes in motion is called?
Inertia
How does gravity work against inertia?
The moon has inertia and wants to keep going in a straight line but the earth has a larger gravitational pull and wants to pull the moon towards it. This causes the moon to circle or orbit the earth.
Can you feel inertia?
No, you cannot feel inertia. Just like you can't feel gravity. In fact, most of the forces of the Earth cannot be felt.
How does inertia affect gravity?
Inertia does not affect gravity, these are two entirely separate things, even though they both are produced by the same thing, which is mass. Mass creates both inertia and gravity, but inertia and gravity do not affect each other.
Inertia in a sentence?
Inertia is, essentially, the body's resistance to change. An example sentence would be: Without inertia, we would be all over the place.

How inertia and gravity combine to keep earth in orbit?
gravity and inertia combine to keep earth in orbit because the suns gravity keeps the earth in orbit and the inertia keeps the earth from going in a straight line.
Is toast a inertia?
Yes. Toast is definitely "a inertia." (sic) In fact, anything on the earth's surface has inertia simply because the earth spins so fast.
How does inertia enable the earth to orbit the sun?
inertia is weird. haha.
What is name force that keep earth certain distance from sun?
Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).
How does inertia and gravity combine to keeps earth in orbit?
The inertia of earth combines with gravity to keep it from colliding with the sun
How would playing a game of soccer baseball or basketball be different if inertia didnt exist?
well, assuming that the world wouldnt break if we didnt have inertia, in baseball, when you tried to catch a ball you would probably go flying backwards until other things stopped you (friction etc). you also probably wouldnt be able to run without the earth going all out of its path around the earth. every step you would take would push the earth because there is no inertia to keep the earth at one point
What two forces keep the moon and all other satellites in orbit around earth?
Gravity and Inertia
What keeps the earth in orbit around the sun and moon in orbit around earth?
The force of gravity and the inertia of the Earth (as it orbits the Sun). Also, gravity combined with the inertia of the Moon (as it orbits the Earth).
What keeps the moon in orbit around earth and earth in orbit around the sun?
The force of gravity and the inertia of the Earth (as it orbits the Sun). Also, gravity combined with the inertia of the Moon (as it orbits the Earth).
What would happen if the inertia of the earth was increased without he sun's gravity increasing?
Inertia is measured by an object's mass. The Earth would still go around in the same orbit, because the orbit does not depend on the mass of a planet. "Inertia" is sometimes used to mean "momentum". That's mass times velocity. If the Earth's velocity increased then it would move further from the Sun. <<>> The point is that "inertia" is a nonscienific word that is used to describe different things by different people and it's best to use "mass" or "momentum" depending on what is meant.
All of the living things on earth today can be grouped into what?
All living things on earth can be grouped into a foodchains.
