Inertial mass is a measure of an object’s resistance to changing its state
of motion when a force is applied. Gravitational mass is determined by
dividing an object’s weight by its free-fall acceleration. Which of the
following statements regarding mass is true?
a) Inertial mass is greater than gravitational mass.
b) Gravitational mass is greater than inertial mass.
c) The total mass of an object is the sum of the inertial mass and gravitational

Explanation:
Inertial mass is a measure of an object's resistance to acceleration when a force is applied. It is determined by applying a force to an object and measuring the acceleration that results from that force. ... Passive gravitational mass is a measure of the strength of an object's interaction with a gravitational field.
