16Inertia — In common usage, however, people may also use the term inertia to refer to an object s amount of resistance to change in velocity (which is quantified by its mass), and sometimes its momentum, depending on context (e.g. this object has a lot of… …
17inertia — inertial, adj. /in err sheuh, i nerr /, n. 1. inertness, esp. with regard to effort, motion, action, and the like; inactivity; sluggishness. 2. Physics. a. the property of matter by which it retains its state of rest or its velocity along a… …
18Moment (physics) — Not to be confused with Momentum (physics). For a more abstract concept of moments that evolved from this concept of physics, see Moment (mathematics). Classical mechanics …
19Mass properties — The Mass Properties of an object are its: *Mass *Center of Gravity *Moment of Inertia *Product of Inertiaee also*SAWE, Society of Allied Weight EngineersMass Properties is the discipline that deals with recording and reporting weight information… …
20Mass distribution — For other uses, see Weight distribution. Mass distribution is a term used in physics and mechanics and describes the spatial distribution of mass within a solid body. In principle, it is relevant also for gases or liquids, but on earth their mass …
