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.
No you more inertia in outer space than anywhere else.
Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion. Objects with more mass have more inertia. The more mass an object has the harder it is to change its motion. Thats is how inertia effects and object. (Don't worry I got this from my Science Textbook)
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.
because a heavier person has more inertia, and therefore the forces that work to slow the person down, i.e. friction, wind resistance, whatever, will have less effect on an object with more inertia than less inertia
The truck has a greater mass and therefore a greater amount of inertia to overcome. To accelerate a greater mass requires a greater force.
I think the truck has more inertia because ethe motorcycle seems less dense than the truck.

More force would be needed to stop a semi truck than a motorcycle. This is because a semi truck is heavier and has more momentum, requiring more force to slow down or stop.
A parked semi truck has no momentum. A moving bicycle does. If both the bike and the truck are moving at the same speed in the same direction, the truck will have more because it has more mass.
Expensive and more complicated.
A truck is heavier, has more mass. So at the same speed, the more massive object has more inertia. A scientific word for inertia is Momentum, defined as mass times speed, and is equal to force times time. So a 1 kilogram mass operated on by a 1 Newton force for 1 second would move at 1 metre per second and would have a momentum of 1 kg-N.
Yes. A Class 7 single axle straight truck exceeds the 26000 lb. GVWR. A semi truck is a Class 8 truck.
Yes
Who invented the Semi-truck?
If the semi truck knocked on the garbage truck, yes.
A large truck typically has more inertia than a small car because inertia is directly proportional to an object's mass. The greater mass of the truck means it will resist changes in its state of motion more than the smaller car.
because it has greater mass
