Answers
Answer:
there are 3 main types of inertia
Explanation:
1) inertia of rest
2) inertia of motion
3) inertia of direction
Answer:
Types of Inertia:
(i) Inertia of rest: The resistance of a body to change its state of rest is called inertia of rest.
E.g.: When you vigorously shake the branches of a tree, some of the leaves and fruits are detached and they fall down (Inertia of rest).
(ii) The inertia of motion: The resistance of a body to change its state of motion is called inertia of motion.
E.g.: An athlete runs some distance before jumping. Because this will help him jump longer and higher. (Inertia of motion)
(iii) Inertia of direction: The resistance of a body to change its direction of motion is called inertia of direction.
E.g.: When you make a sharp turn while driving a car, you tend to lean sideways, (Inertia of direction).
