Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist any change in its state of motion (whether at rest or in motion), as described by Newton’s first law of motion. Thus, the correct answer is:(c) to resist any change in ...

(a) Its speed keeps changing → because acceleration means a change in speed or direction. (b) Its velocity keeps changing → since acceleration affects velocity. (c) It always goes away from the Earth → an object can accelerate in any ...

Newton’s second law of motion states that the force acting on an object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration (F = ma). This law helps to determine the magnitude of force, making the correct answer: (a) ...

Since the object is moving with a constant velocity on a frictionless surface, there’s no net force acting on it! According to Newton’s first law, an object in motion stays in motion with the same velocity unless acted upon by ...

We use the kinematic equation: v² = u² +2as Substituting the values: 0 =(20)²+ 2a(200) 0 = 400 + 400a 400a = −400 a =−1 m/s² The negative sign indicates retardation. Thus, the retardation = 1 m/s². Class 9th Science ...
