Question

Does small weight or large weight require more force to move?why?

I know that large weight requires more force to move,but I don't know what to put for the "why" part.Can someone help me please?Thanks.

Answer 1

Inertia. The larger object has more weight, which is equivalent to mass. More mass, more inertia, more difficult to push.

This is difficult to explain, because you are getting into the fundamental properties of matter, one of which in inertia, which can be looked at as a resistance to motion.

In simple terms, the larger object has more inertia (resistance to puch) because it is larger.
