There are actually 3 kinds of inertia. They are as follows :

1. Inertia of Rest

2. Inertia of Motion

3. Inertia of Direction

But nowadays people consider that there are 2 kinds of inertia , inertia of rest and inertia of motion.

A passenger standing is a fully loaded bus which is at rest to move backward when the driver suddenly start the bus?

It is due to inertia. Inertia is characteristics of matter. There are three kinds of inertia. One is inertia due to rest. Second one is inertia due to motion. Third is inertia due to direction. The question asked is concerned with inertia due to rest. Inertia is defined as the inability of matter to change by its own its state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight line.


Is inertia property of matter or force?

Inertia is a property of matter. It is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. It does not originate from a force itself, but rather describes how objects behave in relation to external forces applied to them.

Does air have inertia?

Yes, air has inertia which is the tendency of a moving object to keep moving in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This property of air is why it takes time for air to start moving or stop moving when a force is applied to it.

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.
