Question

When we say that an object wants to maintain its state of motion, we’re talking about inertia. Which term determines the quantity of inertia for an object?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass is that quantity that is solely dependent upon the inertia of an object. The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion. Suppose that there are two seemingly identical bricks at rest on the physics lecture.

Answer 2

mass is the determinant of inertia.... the more mass a matter is made of, the more inertia it would express...
