Your friend says that inertia is a force that keeps things in their places, either at rest or motion. do you agree? why or why not? 1. disagree; inertia is a property of matter to behave this way, not some kind of force. 2. agree; only forces can keep things in their places. 3. disagree; inertia is a force that keeps things moving. 4. all are wrong. 5. agree; inertia is not a force that keeps things moving.

1. Disagree; inertia is a property of matter to behave this way, not some kind of force.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that a body will remain in rest or in uniform motion while no external force is applied on it. What makes things to preserve their states of motion in inertia. It can be easy to understand remembering that the mass of the objects is the measure of their inertia. Since the mass is a property of matter so is the inertia.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
