Inertia is a measure of ?
Answers
Answer: mass
Explanation:
inertia, the property of a body that makes it oppose any action that attempts to set it in motion or, if it is moving, to change the magnitude or direction of its velocity.
Inertia is a passive property and does not allow the body to do anything other than resist such active agents as forces and torques.
A moving body moves not because of its inertia, but only because of the absence of a force to slow it down, change its direction, or accelerate it.
Inertia is a property of matter that causes it to resist changes in velocity (speed and/or direction). According to Newton's first law of motion, an object with a given velocity maintains that velocity unless acted upon by an external force. Inertia is a property of matter that makes this law valid.
