An object's tendency to resist a change in motion is known as its...

• Inertia

• Mass

• Velocity

An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless a net force is acting on that object. This is known as...

• Newton's Law of Inertia

• Newton's Law of Force & Acceleration

• Newton's Law of Action & Reaction

How do mass and inertia relate to one another?

• Inertia depends on the amount of mass

• Mass depends on the amount of inertia

• Mass and inertia are independent of one another
