Question

The inertia of an object tends to cause the object (a) to increase its speed(b) to decrease its speed(c) to resist any change in its state of motion(d) to decelerate due to friction.

Answer 1

The inertia of an object tends to cause the object

(a) to increase its speed

(b) to decrease its speed

(c) to resist any change in its state of motion

(d) to decelerate due to friction.

The correct option is c)..

More Details :

Inertia :

Inertia is that property of a body due to which it resists a change in its state of rest or of uniform motion.

Newton's Laws of Motion

Newton's First Law of Motion :

A body at rest will remain at rest,and a body in motion will continue in motion in a straight line with a uniform speed,unless it is compelled by an external force to change its state of rest or uniform motion.

Newton's Second Law of Motion :

The rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force,in the direction in which the force acts.

Newton's Third Law of Motion :

To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

OR

Whenever one body exerts a force on another body,the second body exerts an equal and opposite force on the first body.
