(1) mass of the object from 1.0 kg to 2.0 kg

Katelyn Wyatt · Answer 2

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to any change in its state of motion; this includes changes to its speed, direction or state of rest. I would say that the correct option would be 2. The greatest increase in the inertia of an object would be produced by increasing the net force applied to the object from 1.0 N to 2.0 N.
