Question

A box of books has _______inertia than a box of cotton balls.

Answer 1

Talking about a quantity of inertia is exactly the same as talking about a quantity of mass.  So, if the boxes are anywhere near the same size, then the box of books has more inertia than the box of cotton balls, because books have more mass than an identical volume of cotton.

Answer 2

A box of books has more inertia than a box of cotton balls.

Explanation:

Inertia is related to the mass of the object. Inertia is usually defined as the resistance offered by the object in response to the movement or the velocity of the object.

The object will higher mass will have higher inertia as it should offer more resistance to remain in inertia and the object with lesser mas can offer smaller resistance comparatively. So here, the box of books has more inertia than a box of cotton balls.
