A bowling ball has a mass of 6 kilograms. A tennis has a mass of 0.06 kilogram. How much inertia does the bowling ball have compared to the tennis ball?

Respuesta :

Answer: The bowling ball has a inertia 100 times bigger than the one of the tenis ball.

Explanation: Inertia depends on the mass of an object and the position/movement of it, where the relation with the mass is directly proportional.

then if we compare the ratio of the masses of the objects, that ratio will be equal to the ratio of inertias.

I = 6/0.06 = 100

This means that the inertia of the bowling ball is 100 times bigger than the one of the tennis ball.
