Inertia is the property of an object to resist any change in its motion, including a change in direction. An object will stay still or keep moving at the same speed and in the same direction, unless it is acted upon by an external unbalanced force. Show more…

A heavy wooden ball is hanging from the ceiling by a piece of string that is attached from the ceiling to the top of the ball. A similar piece of string is attached to the bottom of the ball. If the loose end of the lower string is pulled down sharply, which is the string that is most likely to break?
A ball of mass $1.00 \mathrm{~kg}$ is attached to a loose string fixed to a ceiling. The ball is released from rest and falls $2.00 \mathrm{~m}$, where the string suddenly stops it. Find the impulse on it from the string.
A 15.0 -kg ball is supported from the ceiling by rope A. Rope $\mathrm{B}$ pulls downward and to the side on the ball. If the angle of $\mathrm{A}$ to the vertical is $22^{\circ}$ and if $\mathrm{B}$ to the vertical is $23^{\circ}$ to the vertical (Fig. 88), find the tensions in ropes $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ .
