Moving About Inertia: What is Inertia? Inertia is a property of matter that causes it to resist changes in velocity (speed and/or direction) (Rouse‚ 2005). Basically Inertia is a word we use when we talk about matter and movement (Unknown Author‚ Unknown Date). This idea goes all the way back to Sir Isaac Newton‚ a great physicist. In Newton’s first law of motion it is stated that: 1. An object at rests tends to stay in rest 2. An object in motion tends to stay in motion A great example

It is with this principle that seatbelts‚ crumple zones‚ air bags‚ and braking systems‚ among other features‚ are able to save us from such unfortunate events.

The distance between Gliese 581g and its star makes this planet lies right in the middle of the habitable zone in which liquid water could exist. Gliese 581g is three to four times more massive than Earth and it has enough gravity to retain an atmosphere and keep liquid water from evaporating into space (Berardelli‚ Phil 2010).

India. British India did not adopt the international standard time zones until 1905 when the meridian passing through Allahabad at 82.5º east (of Greenwich Meridian) longitude was picked as the central meridian for India‚ corresponding to a single time zone for the country at 5 hours and 30 minutes in advance of GMT.
