Which of these properties of an object best quantifies its inertia: velocity, acceleration, volume, mass, or temperature?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

Inertia is essentially an object's tendency to stay in motion or at rest unless it is forced to do otherwise (pun intended). It only makes sense to me that mass would best quantify an object's inertia, because an object with more mass would be harder to move and/or stop from moving.

A bee wants to fly to a flower located due North of the hive on a windy day. The wind blows from East to West at speed 6.68 m/s.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: $53.31\°$ East of North

Explanation:

We have the following data:

Speed of the wind from East to West: $6.68 m/s$

Speed of the bee relative to the air: $8.33 m/s$

If we graph these speeds (which in fact are velocities because are vectors) in a vector diagram, we will have a right triangle in which the airspeed of the bee (its speed relative to te air) is the hypotense and the two sides of the triangle will be the <u>Speed of the wind from East to West</u> (in the horintal part) and the <u>speed due North relative to the ground</u> (in the vertical part).

Now, we need to find the direction the bee should fly directly to the flower (due North):

$sin \theta=\frac{Windspeed-from-East-to-West}{Speed-bee-relative-to-air}$
