B. A pingpong ball rolling a 2 m/s
C. A bowling ball rolling at 1m/s
D. A car rolling at 5 m/s

A. A tractor trailer rig moving at 2 m/s

Explanation:

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's first law of motion is known as law of inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

The inertia of an object such as a tractor trailer rig is greatly dependent or influenced by its mass; the higher quantity of matter in a tractor trailer rig, the greater will be its tendency to continuously remain at rest.

Hence, the object that has more inertia is a tractor trailer rig moving at 2 m/s because it has more mass than all the other objects in the category. Also, the mass of an object is directly proportional to its inertia.
