Question

As the mass of an object increases, inertia ____.
 

  1. Increase
  2. Decrease
  3. Remain same
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

It turns out that the inertia of an object is directly proportional to its mass: the more massive it is, the harder one has to push to move it.

The correct answer is: Increase


    Inertia is a property of objects: the degree to which they resist changes in their motion. It turns out inertia of an object is directly proportional to its mass ,  the more massive it is the harder one has to push to move it.

    The more mass, the more inertia
