What is inertia?

• Objects in motion will continue in a straight path; stationary (not moving) object stays in place

• Objects in motion will stop; stationary (not moving) objects will move in a straight path

• Objects in motion will move in a straight path; stationary (not moving) objects will move in circles

• Objects in motion will move in a circle; stationary (not moving) objects will move in a straight path

Which of the following is true about inertia?

• The more mass an object has the more inertia it has.

• The more mass an object has the less inertia it has.

• Mass has no effect on inertia.
