Which statement is true? A. Inertia causes bodies to slow in their motion, unless they’re pushed by a force. B. Inertia resists changes to the state of motion of a body. C. Inertia decelerates a body. D. Inertia is due to friction.

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. Inertia resists changes to the state of motion of a body.

Explanation:

From the given choices, it is true that inertia resists changes to the state of motion of a body.

Inertia is a form of force solely dependent on the weight of a body. This quantity defines the native ability of a body to resist changes in motion.

According to Newton's first law, the concept of inertia is even more clearly defined.

The law states that "an object will remain in a state of rest or of uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an external force" .
