Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which one of the following objects has the greatest inertia?
A
Ping pong ball
B
A golf ball
C
A soft ball
D
A bowling ball
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Since the mass of a bowling ball is the greatest. Therefore, a bowling ball has the greatest inertia.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, the inertia of a bowling ball will be greater as it has more mass when compared to a golf ball. Q. On what factor does the inertia of a body depend?

Detailed explanation-3: -Mass affects inertia. The greater an object’s mass, the more inertia it has. So, a bowling ball has more inertia than a baseball. Bowling pins have inertia, too.

Detailed explanation-4: -Inertia is the resistance offered by an object to any change in its state of motion, or even change in its direction of motion. It depends upon mass of the body. More the mass of body, more is the inertia. Therefore, truck has more inertia as compared to other given options.
