What type of inertia is shown in the situation?
When you quickly pull a tablecloth from under dishes, the dishes stay in place because they resist the change in motion.

• Inertia of Rest

• Inertia of Motion

• Inertia of Acceleration

• Inertia of Direction

What type of inertia is shown in the situation?
When a car suddenly starts moving, passengers jerk backward because their bodies want to stay at rest.

• Inertia of Rest

• Inertia of Motion
