Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 38R
Inertia describes the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion and the correct option is option (B).
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Newton’s first law best describes the property name ‘Inertia’.
Inertia is the property of the body by the goodness of which the body stays in rest or in proceeding with movement until some outside force is employed on the body.
Conclusion:
Therefore, inertia describes the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion.
