assuming its not starting at zero, if an object velocity is doubled, its kinetic energy (KE) is four times. If its trebled , its KE is nine times

equation : KE = (m*v^2)/2 joules

m=mass

v=velocity

The greater the mass of an object the greater. is?

the force required to accelerate it, according to Newton's second law of motion (F = ma). This means that objects with larger mass require more force to achieve the same acceleration as objects with smaller mass.


Does an object with more momentum have more or less inertia?

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


How does inertia help us?

Inertia deals with an objects reluctance to change its velocity. So if its not moving, you will have to exert a large force to get it to move. But once it is in motion, its inertia helps it move by lowering the breaking effect of resistance. If you throw a bowling ball through a grass field, it will go father than a beach ball thrown in a similar manner, because the bowling ball has more inertia!!


What is nawtons first law of motion?

Newton's First Law of Motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move at a constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by a net external force. This principle highlights the natural tendency of objects to resist changes in their state of motion. Inertia is the property that quantifies this resistance, with more massive objects exhibiting greater inertia.


Which of Newton's laws fits this statement - objects keep on doing what they are doing?

The first law comes closest. Objects have a tendency not to change their velocity.

Objects with more mass have ---- inertia?

Yes, inertia=mass*velocity


An objects resistance to change in motion?

Inertia. Inertia applies to both increases and decreases in velocity.


What resist change in velocity?

Objects with greater mass resist changes in velocity more than light objects. Additionally, objects with higher inertia or momentum also resist changes in velocity. Friction and air resistance can also act to resist changes in velocity.


A change in a objects velocity is called?

either resistance or inertia


Why is momentum caused?

momentum is caused by inertia. all objects have inertia, which means if they are moving at a certain velocity or are at rest they will continue to move at that velocity or remain at rest unless acted on by a force. Objects of more mass have greater inertia, so the amount of momentum is equal to the product of an objects mass and the magnitude of its velocity.


What two determine an objects inertia?

An object's inertia is determined by its mass and velocity. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while velocity is the speed and direction of its motion. A heavier object or an object with greater velocity will have greater inertia.


Why must a force be exerted on a object to change its velocity?

To overcome the objects inertia

What happens to an objects kinetic energy when the velocity is doubled?

When an object's velocity doubles, its kinetic energy increases by a factor of four. This relationship is described by the kinetic energy equation, which states that kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of an object's velocity.


Do Objects with more mass have more inertia?

Yes, objects with more mass have more inertia. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion, and it is directly proportional to the mass of the object. Objects with greater mass require more force to change their motion compared to objects with lesser mass.


What affects an objects inertia?

The mass of the object and the velocity of the object.


What happens when an object exhibits inertia it?

When an object exhibits inertia, it means it resists changes in its state of motion. This can manifest as objects maintaining their current velocity or remaining at rest unless acted upon by an external force. Inertia is a fundamental property of matter described by Newton's First Law of Motion.
