Newton’s First Law of Newton’s First Law of MotionMotion
An object at rest will remain at rest, and an An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion, at object in motion will remain in motion, at constant velocity in a straight line, unless constant velocity in a straight line, unless acted upon by a net (unbalanced) force. acted upon by a net (unbalanced) force.

InertiaInertiaInertiaInertia is the tendency of an object to is the tendency of an object to resist a change in velocityresist a change in velocity
Mass actually has two aspectsMass actually has two aspects
Inertial Mass Inertial Mass is how hard it is to is how hard it is to change an object’s velocitychange an object’s velocity
Gravitational massGravitational mass is how strongly a is how strongly a gravitational field affects a massgravitational field affects a mass

he flings the Jell-O with a greater speed it will have a he flings the Jell-O with a greater speed it will have a greater inertia. Tosh argues that inertia does not depend greater inertia. Tosh argues that inertia does not depend upon speed, but rather upon mass. Who do you agree with? upon speed, but rather upon mass. Who do you agree with? Explain why.Explain why.
