Question
Which of the following statements are true of inertia? List all that apply.
- Inertia is a force.
- Inertia is a force which keeps stationary objects at rest and moving objects in motion at constant velocity.
- Inertia is a force which brings all objects to a rest position.
- All objects have inertia.
- A more massive object has more inertia than a less massive object.
- Fast-moving objects have more inertia than slow-moving objects.
- An object would not have any inertia in a gravity-free environment (if there is such a place).
- Inertia is the tendency of all objects to resist motion and ultimately stop.
- In a gravity-free environment (should there be one), a person with a lot of inertia would have the same ability to make a turn as a person with a small amount of inertia.
