What is inertia of direction? Give examples of inertia of direction. |
|
Answer» The inherent property of a body by virtue of which it cannot change its direction of motion is called the inertia of direction. Examples: 1. While sharpening a knife, sparks fly off tangentially in the sense of motion from the grinding stone. 2. When a vehicle moves, the mud particles sticking to its wheels fly off tangentially in the sense of motion. Hence, mudguards are fitted to vehicles. |
