Inertia depends on which property of an object?
-
A.
Velocity
-
B.
Mass
-
C.
Shape
-
D.
Acceleration
Correct Answer:
B. Mass
Explanation:
Inertia is the fundamental property of an object that describes its natural resistance to any changes in its state of motion, whether at rest or moving at a constant velocity. This resistance is determined solely by the object's mass; the greater the mass an object possesses, the more inertia it has, making it more difficult to accelerate or decelerate. While other factors like velocity and acceleration describe an object's current motion, mass is the quantitative measure of its inertia.
