Question

question 8 of 10
which term describes the tendency of an object to resist changes in motion?
a. inertia
b. force
c. acceleration
d. reaction

Explanation:

In physics, inertia is the property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force. Force causes a change in motion, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and reaction is part of Newton's third - law concept related to an equal and opposite force.

A. Inertia
