A student is investigating the inertia of several objects. She records her data in a table.
W 6.5 18.0
X 3.0 15.0
Y 11.5 9.0
Z 5.0 6.0
To calculate the inertia of each object, we need to use the formula inertia = mass x velocity.
For object W:
Inertia = 6.5 x 18.0 = 117
For object X:
Inertia = 3.0 x 15.0 = 45
For object Y:
Inertia = 11.5 x 9.0 = 103.5
For object Z:
Inertia = 5.0 x 6.0 = 30
Therefore, the inertia of each object is as follows:
- Object W: 117
- Object X: 45
- Object Y: 103.5
- Object Z: 30
