Yes, if an object is not in motion, it will stay that way unless a force acts on it.

Resting Inertia and Moving Inertia


What effect does inertia have on an objects at rest?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. For an object at rest, inertia will make it resist any external force applied to try to move it. The greater the inertia of an object, the more force is needed to overcome it and set the object in motion.


What is a inertia?

There is no "A inertia." Its just inertia and inertia is the measure of an objects to stay at rest or to keep moving.


Which of the follwing is an example of inertia?

A book resting on a table and remaining stationary until a force is applied is an example of inertia.


Do objects have inertia?

yes


How do you avoid static inertia when performing a resting stroke?

Don't move


What is the relationship between the different inertia of objects and their ability to resist changes in motion?

The relationship between the different inertia of objects and their ability to resist changes in motion is that objects with greater inertia are more resistant to changes in motion. Inertia is the tendency of an object to stay at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Objects with higher inertia require more force to change their motion compared to objects with lower inertia.


How does the mass of an objects affect inertia?

Mass is the measure of inertia and if you change the mass the inertia will change.


Objects with more mass have ---- inertia?

Yes, inertia=mass*velocity


The property of objects that resists change in motion is called?

The property of objects that resists changes in motion is called inertia.


An objects resistance to change in motion?

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


How does inertia effect objects?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. Objects with more mass have greater inertia, so they are harder to accelerate or decelerate. Inertia also causes objects in motion to stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force.
