Question

Mass measure the amount of _____ in a body.

• A. inertia
• B. motion
• C. velocity
• D. acceleration

Answer 1

The correct option is A

inertia

Explanation for the correct option

(A): inertia

1. Inertia is the opposition that occurs by a body when we try to change the motion of a body.
2. Inertia is dependent upon the mass of an object.
3. Mass measure the amount of inertia in a body.

Explanation for incorrect option

(B): Motion depends upon the parameters like distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration.

(C): The velocity of an object depends upon the time, gravity, mass, etc

(D): The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied.

Hence, mass measure the amount of inertia in a body. Hence option (a) is correct.
