What else can I help you with?
The tendancy of an object to resist change in its motion is called?
The name for this tendency is inertia. (Inertia is basically a another name for mass i.e. an object with mass will resist motion)
What is the difference between rotation and reflection in graphic design?
Rotation is a transformation that spins an object on a specific point. In Adobe Illustrator, an object's default rotation point is its centre.Reflection is a transformation that flips an object over and across a specific axis. In Adobe Illustrator, an object's default reflection axis runs vertically through its centre.
Why do the earth's satellites in orbit high above our atmosphere do not need to burn fuel to keep them in motion?
the earths gravitational pull keeps them in rotation with the earth along with centrifugal force also newtons law applies- an object will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
The amount of space an object takes up in one direction?
dimension duhh!
Does the solar system cause earth rotation?
No. Once an object starts spinning it does not need anything to keep it spinning. In fact it would take a force to stop the rotation. Earth has been rotating since it first formed and its angular momentum has kept it spinning.
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.
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.
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.
How many type of inertia?
There are three types of inertia: inertia of rest (object at rest tends to stay at rest), inertia of motion (object in motion tends to stay in motion), and inertia of direction (object resists changes in its direction of motion).
What is momentum of inertia?
The momentum of inertia, also known as rotational inertia, is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotational motion. It depends on the mass and distribution of mass of an object relative to its axis of rotation. A larger momentum of inertia makes it harder to accelerate or decelerate the object's rotation.
What is the force acting on an object that will change the direction of object?
inertia
Why moment of inertia is called rotational inertia?
That's what it's all about: about rotation. The "inertia" part is because it is comparable to the linear inertia: that's what makes it difficult to change an object's rotation.
What is the relationship between mass of a rotating object and its period?
The mass of a rotating object does not affect its period of rotation. The period of rotation is determined by the object's moment of inertia and angular velocity. However, the mass of an object can affect its moment of inertia, which in turn can affect the period of rotation.
How to find the moment of inertia for a given object?
To find the moment of inertia for a given object, you need to know the mass of the object and the distance of each mass element from the axis of rotation. The moment of inertia is calculated by summing the products of each mass element and its distance squared from the axis of rotation. The formula for moment of inertia varies depending on the shape of the object.
Must an object be rotating to have a nonzero moment of inertia?
Well, friend, an object doesn't have to be rotating to have a nonzero moment of inertia. Moment of inertia is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotation. Even if an object is at rest, it can still have a moment of inertia based on its shape and mass distribution. Just like how every cloud has a silver lining, every object has a moment of inertia waiting to be discovered!
What is the relationship between the direction of angular velocity and the rotation of an object?
The direction of angular velocity determines the direction of rotation of an object. If the angular velocity is positive, the object rotates counterclockwise, and if it is negative, the object rotates clockwise.
What are ways to increase inertia?
Increasing the mass of an object will increase its inertia. Also, increasing the speed at which an object is spinning will increase its rotational inertia. Additionally, increasing the distance of an object from the axis of rotation will increase its rotational inertia.
