Assuming all objects are moving with the same velocity, which statement describes the object with the largest inertia?
O A driver continues forward after his car takes a sharp turn.
O A ball rolls across a street and into a large soccer field.
O A rock is thrown in space and continues in a straight line.
O An avalanche of snow falls down a mountain side.

From Newton's first law of motion, a body at rest or uniform motion will continue to be at rest or uniform motion until and unless a net external force acts on it”. Suppose a block is kept on the floor, it will remain at rest until we apply some external force to it. Also, we know that it takes us more effort or force to move a heavy mass. This is directly related to a property known as Inertia. This law is also known as the law of inertia.

Answer:

A rock is thrown in space and continues in a straight line.

Explanation:

Inertia is an object's natural tendency to resist changes in its original state of rest or movement. For this reason, we can say that among the options given in the question above, a stone that is thrown into space and continues in a straight line, is the example of greater inertia.

In other words, a stationary object always tends to remain stationary, and a moving body tends to maintain the same movement. This natural tendency that each body has to maintain its initial state can only be changed by the application of an external force.
