Question

Which has greater inertia: a 1-quart milk carton filled with feathers or the same carton filled with buckshot?

Answer 1

Answer:

The carton filled with buckshot has the greater inertia.

Explanation:

First we have to find how inertia is determined.

''The inertia of an object is determined by the type of material from which object is made and by the amount of that material contained in the object''

If we look at this statement we can easily find that buckshot has greater inertia than quart milk. buckshot is made up of metals.

metal has a high inertia

So according to this statement buckshot has the greater inertia then quart milk.  

Answer 2

Because a Buckshot a more dense than a feather, the same carton filled with buckshot has a greater inertial.

Mass and Inertial

Inertia simply means the tendency of a body or a system to remain in an idle state or maintain uniform motion.

The Box of carton filled with buckshot will posses more inertia because it has more weight compared to that of the box of feathers, hence the more the weight or density, the more difficult it is to displace a body.
