(1) The Assertion here is correct and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Newton said that "Object's mass is the measure of its inertia".
Explanation about given assertion and reason:
- Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist the change in state.
- As Newton stated, "A body at rest will remain at rest and that in motion will remain in motion until an external force is applied".
- Mass is the measure of the amount of matter present in an object.
- An object with a higher mass has a higher tendency to resist change in state and hence greater inertia.
As the mass of an object is independent of physical space, the inertia of a body remains the same everywhere.
