What are 5 examples of inertia of rest, inertia of motion, and inertia of direction?
That was helpful. Can you explain to me how inertia affects car accidents?
Of course. Inertia plays a major role in car accidents. When a car is in motion, it has inertia of motion, meaning it wants to continue moving in its current direction and speed. If a car suddenly stops (like hitting a wall or another car), the passengers inside the car will continue moving forward at the car's original speed until something stops them (like a seatbelt). This is why it's important to wear a seatbelt so you don't get thrown out of the car during an accident.
