What is inertia and give examples?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. For example, a heavy object is harder to push or stop because it has more inertia. Inertia also explains why objects in motion tend to stay in motion and objects at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force.


Why is it hard to move heavy objects fast?

Moving heavy objects fast requires greater force, which can be difficult to generate quickly. Additionally, overcoming inertia and friction for heavy objects takes more effort and energy. Inadequate grip, balance, or coordination can also make it challenging to move heavy objects quickly without risking injury.


What items have the most inertia while at rest?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to continue to move, or stay at rest, unless affected by an externalÊforce. Inertia is related to the mass of an object so objects with greater mass have more inertia.


True or False Lighter objects have less inertia than heavy objects?

True. An object in motion tends to stay in motion, and an object at rest tends to stay at rest.


What is a sentence for inertia?

the ability of an object to resist friction is its inertia


Why are wheeled useful for moving heavy objects?

Less surface area contacting the ground reduces friction. Wheels are useful for moving heavy objects so you don't hurt your back.


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.


Why is it harder to overcome the inertia of a bowling ball than a baseball?

The only real way to answer this is to define the terms, then it should make sense. Mass - How much of something there is, and what its made of. A rock and a spunge may be the same size, but the rock has more mass. Gravity - The force of attraction between any two objects. Usually the Earth, and somthing else. Based on the masses of the two objects. Weight - The amount of force due to gravity. A rock on earth will weigh less on mars because the mass of mars is less than the mass of earth. This is also why you don't feel 'weight' between you and your cup of coffee. The masses of the two objects is much too small to be felt. This is the same thing as 'heavy,' just a different word. Inertia - Refers to how much energy you need to get an object moving. The more mass an object has, the more inertia it has. This is totally independent from gravity or weight. With those definitions, you should be able to figure it out. Bowling balls are heavier because they have more mass, and they are heavy because of gravity. Also, bowling balls have more inertia, because they have more mass.


Which of the following objects has the greatest inertia baseball bowling ball pencil or toothpick?

I think the golf ball has more inertia than ping pong ball, becuase of its weight. It is much heavy which result that it could stay at rest more, than a very lightweight ping pong ball.


Why do objects sink?

objects sink because they are to heavy.


Which travels faster on an incline a heavy object or a light object?

In general, both heavy and light objects will accelerate at the same rate when moving down an incline due to gravity. However, the heavy object will have more inertia, so it may require more force to move initially but will have a stronger pull down the incline once moving.
