The tendency for an object to resist a change in its motion
3
New cards
What does inertia depend on
Only on mass
The smaller the mass of the object the smaller the force required to move it.
4
New cards
Resultant force
A number of forces acting on an object may be replaced by a single overall force - which has the same effect as all original forces
5
New cards
Moments
A force or system of forces may cause an object to rotate about a pivot (stationary) point
6
