True
False
8. Which of the following statements about inertia is correct?
The more mass a body has, the more inertia it has.
The more mass a body has, the less inertia it has.
The amount of inertia a body has is not dependent upon its mass.
None of the above is correct.
9. Which of the following statements about Newton's Laws of Motion is not correct?
Objects at rest stay at rest; objects in motion stay in motion.
The force necessary to overcome an object's inertia depends on its mass.
When a force acts on an object, the only result is action in the direction of the force.
All of the above.
10. Which of the following statements about the mass and weight of an object is correct?
The mass of an object is the same regardless of where it is measured.
