Answer:
Inertia is the inherent property of a body to resist the change in its natural state of rest or motion .
There are three types of inertia :
Inertia of motion
Inertia of direction
Inertia of rest
Inertia of motion :
The inherent property of a body to resist the change in its natural state of
motion is inertia of motion .
Ex : When the bus suddenly comes to a halt , we tend to fall forward . This
is due to inertia of motion .
Inertia of rest :
The inherent property of a body to resist the change in its natural state of
rest is called as inertia of rest .
Ex : When a bus suddenly comes into motion , we tend to fall backward .
This is due to inertia of rest .
Inertia of direction :
The inherent property of a body to resist the change in its current direction
of motion .
Ex : When a bus suddenly takes a turn , we tend to move in the outward
direction . This is due to inertia of direction .
