An object's INERTIA depends primarily on its:
AVelocity, with faster moving objects having more inertia
BMass, with heavier objects having more inertia
CColour, with darker objects having more inertia
DTemperature, with hotter objects having more inertia
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Mass, with heavier objects having more inertia
Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its motion.
Mass is the quantitative measure of inertia: heavier objects resist changes more strongly than lighter ones.
