Yes, every object has inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, whether that is staying at rest or continuing in motion. The amount of inertia an object has depends on its mass.

An object tendacy to resist any change in motion is called?

This tendency is known as Inertia.


How can you calculate the inertia constant for ac generator?

Calculating system inertia by mutiplying the Inertia Time Costant [Sgn] of every single generator to calculate the inertia of the generator and sum all inertias to calculate the whole system inertia Calculating system inertia from the RoCoF (post fault calculation)


Must an object be rotating to have a nonzero moment of inertia?

Well, friend, an object doesn't have to be rotating to have a nonzero moment of inertia. Moment of inertia is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotation. Even if an object is at rest, it can still have a moment of inertia based on its shape and mass distribution. Just like how every cloud has a silver lining, every object has a moment of inertia waiting to be discovered!


Does inertia exist on a flying airplane?

Every thing that has mass has inertia, even particles of light it seems. If an aircraft had no inertia during flight, it would instantly react to every bit of turbulent air, change of engine power or flight control input. That would make for a most uncomfortable flight!


What is an object's tendency to keep on doing what it's doing called?

The term is inertia.*Inertia: The resistance that all physical matter has to change in momentum.It is also known as Newton's first law of motion: Every body remains in a state of rest or uniform motion (constant velocity) unless it is acted upon by an external unbalanced force.

What is the relationship between heavy objects an inertia?

Nothing specifically. Inertia is a proprety of matter (as you may know from the Bill Nye the Science Guy intro), and just because there is more mass to an oject doesn't really mean that it would have more inertia. However, other forces such as friction and gravity are spread over an oject, so there would be more friction due to the mass and more downwards force because of gravity + the mass.


Is the force that every object in the universe exert on every other object?

inertia


What is a measure of force of gravity on an oject?

When the object is in a normal every-day situation on Earth or another planet, that's the force we usually call the object's "weight".

What is the property of matter tat keeps a moving object moving in a straight line?

It's Newton's first law of motion: "An oject in motion will stay in motion (with the same velocity) until an outside force acts upon it and an object at rest will stay at rest until an outside force acts upon it."
