Inertia is associated with mass
Chat with our AI personalities
Inertia is associated with the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. It is related to an object's mass, with more massive objects having greater inertia. Inertia is a fundamental property of matter described by Newton's First Law of Motion.
Inertia is a scalar quantity. It is a measure of an object's resistance to changes in its state of motion and is directly proportional to its mass. Inertia does not have a direction associated with it, so it is considered a scalar.

Inertia.
The three types of inertia are inertia of rest, inertia of motion, and inertia of direction. Inertia of rest is the tendency of an object to remain at rest. Inertia of motion is the tendency of an object to continue moving at a constant velocity. Inertia of direction is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its direction of motion.
