According to Newton's First Law of Motion objects tend to resist changes in motion. Why doesn't a leaf resist a change in motion when the wind blows?

What is leaves do not have much mass

300

A 100 kg object and a 50 kg object have the same force exerted on each of them. Which object will gave the greater acceleration and why?

What is the 50 kg object due to it having less inertia

What is a short horizontal distance, an increased time, an increased vertical distance.

500

Some examples of objects with a lot of Inertia include planes, automobiles, and houses. What gives rise to the high amounts of inertia for these objects?

What is the increased mass

What is terminal velocity

500

A large rock and a penny are launched horizontally. Do both objects hit the ground at the same time. Why or why not?

What is yes, because gravity is the only force acting in the vertical due to the little air resistance.
