  11. is the opposition of a body to a change in velocity when acted on by an external force. The motor’s force must overcome the inertia of the load, coupling components, and motor rotor.

  13. The tendency of an object to continue in motion at the same speed and in the same direction, unless acted upon by a force.
  14. The physical property of an object to resist changes in velocity when acted upon by an outside force. Inertia is dependent upon the mass and shape of an object.
  15. A property of matter that causes it to resist changes in speed or direction (velocity).
  16. Inertia is a tendency of an object to resist change in its state of motion. More massive objects have more inertia; that is, they have more tendency to resist changes in the way they are moving. An elephant has a lot of inertia, for example. ...

  22. Inertia is a property of matter: a mass at rest remains at rest and a mass in motion remains in motion as long as no outside force acts upon it.
  23. The ability of an object to resist acceleration or deceleration. Inertia can be broadly equated with mass.
