Per NCERT §4.3, INERTIA of a body is best described as which property?
ASpeed achieved at rest
BForce of gravity acting on it
CResistance to change in state of motion

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Resistance to change in state of motion
NCERT §4.3: inertia = resistance to change. A body at rest stays at rest; a body in uniform motion continues uniformly.
