An object with more momentum will have more inertia. Inertia is the ability to resist a change in force; objects with higher masses and higher speeds will have greater inertia. Speed * mass = momentum

What will make an object accelerate faster one with less inertia or more momentum?

If an object has more momentum, it has either a greater mass or a greater velocity. If an object has less inertia, it has less mass. So am object with less inertia will accelerate faster than one with greater momentum because of a greater mass, assuming the same force of acceleration is applied to both. However, if the greater momentum is due to greater velocity, not enough information has been provided to answer the question.


How are inertia and momentum related?

Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion, while momentum is a measure of an object's motion. Inertia is a property of matter that affects how much momentum an object has for a given velocity. An object with more inertia will require more force to change its momentum.


What do you measure to find an objects inertia?

Inertia in physics is generally defined as resistance to change in velocity and it is measured as a change in momentum. (p is momentum, so change in momentum would be Δp, measured as Δp = m*Δv)


What measures how hard it is to slow or stop an object?

It all depends on its acceleration, velocity, speed and its mass. The faster somthing goes, the more time it takes to slow down. To slow the same onject down fater, more force has to be applied in the opposite direction. A less massive object [lighter] takes less time to slow down than a more massive object [heavier].


How are momentum and interia related?

Momentum, specifically linear momentum, defined as:p = mvwhere p=momentum, m=mass and v=velocityis a vector quantity that describes an objects motion in a given frame.Inertia, or the Principle of Inertia, is an object's resistance to a change in velocity. It is pretty much summed up by Newton's First Law of motion, an object at rest/ in motion will continue at rest/ in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.Momentum and Inertia are related conceptually in the way that any object with mass has momentum, if its velocity is zero than its momentum is zero, and inertia is that objects resistance to a change in its velocity.


Does an object with less mass have more momentum than an object with more mass?

True, Because say if you have one acorn in a basket, The basket will be easy to move. Now lets say if you have enough acorns to fill the basket to the rim, The basket will be harder to move because of its weight and inertia.


Distinguish between mass and momentum Which is inertia and which is inertia on motion?

Mass is the quantity which shows the direct MEASUREMENT of the component of a body(substance) without the necessary consideration of the motional status of the body while mommentum mathematically,is the product of mass and velocity,It is affected by the motional status of the body.hence,MOMENTUM is INERTIAor by feb.....We say the truck has more momentum than the car. By momentum, we mean inertia in motion, or more specially ,the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity.


A 2mg object has more inertia than a 20 kg object?

Since momentum (force in motion) is a measurement of mass times velocity, a heavier object traveling at the same speed as a lighter object will have more force behind it.


What is the relationship between velocity and inertia?

Newtons First Law of Motion states that an object with a given momentum will continue to posses that same momentum until the object is acted on by a force in which case it will undergo a change in momentum. Inertia is a measure of an objects tendency to resist a change in momentum. Massive bodies have a large inertia. If a massive body is in motion its momentum is given by the product of the mass and the velocity of that body. Newtons first law says that if a force acts on this body its momentum will change. But since the body has a large inertia this change is small. For example, if a small space pebble collides with a large asteroid that has a constant velocity and thus constant momentum, the force is small relative to the inertia of the asteroid so the momentum only changes a little bit.


Why does a greater momentum make something travel farther?

A greater momentum means that an object has more inertia and is less affected by outside forces like air resistance or friction, allowing it to travel further before coming to a stop. This is because momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity, so a greater momentum indicates that the object is moving faster or is more massive, which helps it maintain its motion over a longer distance.


How is inertia related to the objects mass?

Inertia is directly related to an object's mass. The more mass an object has, the more inertia it will have. This means that objects with more mass require more force to accelerate or decelerate compared to objects with less mass.


Why is it that an object with momentum is hard to stop?

An object with momentum is hard to stop because momentum is a measure of how much motion an object has. When an object is in motion, it has momentum, and stopping it requires applying a force in the opposite direction. The greater the momentum of an object, the more force is needed to bring it to a stop.
