Mechanical waves require matter to travel medium. If there is no substance or matter to travel through, mechanical waves cannot propagate.
Since space is mostly vacuum, there is no medium for waves to travel through: waves sent by the sun (electromagnetic waves) are not mechanical waves

Explanation:
Inertia is defined as the property of matter by which causes it to resist changes in its state of motion such as changes in velocity. From the given options above, the option that has the greatest inertia would be option B. A jet airliner.
Answer:
Friction, normal force, and weight
Explanation:
If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.
Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)
Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.
