Question

Inertia is dependent upon which of the following physical features of the object?

• A. Velocity of the body
• B. Acceleration applied
• C. Mass of the body
• D. Volume of the body

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Mass of the body

Inertia is defined as a state of the body to resist change in motion. If the body is at rest, it wants to stay at rest and if the body is moving, it wants to keep on moving due to the inertia of the body. More the mass, more force will be required to set it in motion. Hence, more the mass more will be inertia.
