Question

A body a is heavier than the body b, the body a has more
(a) Inertia of motion
(b) Inertia of rest
(c) Inertia of direction
(d) All of these ​

Answer 1

Answer:

all of these

Explanation:

There are three types of inertia:

1. Inertia of rest: This is the resistance offered by the body to remain in rest unless an external force is not applied on the body. Eg. : If a carpet is beaten with a stick then the dust particles due to inertia of rest tends to remain in rest while the fibres of carpet becomes in motion.

2. Inertia of direction: This is the resistance offered by the body to change its direction unless an ext. force is not applied on the body. Eg : If a bus takes a turn then passengers sitting in tends to remain in the same direction in which the bus was travelling before.

3. Inertia of motion: The resistance offered by the body to change its uniform motion. Eg : If a bus stops suddenly then the passengers fall forward due to inertia of motion

So when we shake a tree, due to inertia of motion the fruit tries to remain in motion. Due to which it gets detached from the branch and falls.

Answer 2

Answer:

c) inertia of direction
