The statement "Inertia is the property that every material object has that causes objects to resist changes in its state of motion" is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Inertia defines as the resistance produced by the body or an objects to vary in its states of motion, by an external force. An external agent cannot disturb a body, until it has more magnitude than its normal force. Normal force is nothing but due to the mass of the body, being in contact with the ground.

So, inertia is purely dependent on the mass of the body. The unit of inertia is ‘kg’. Inertia, the complete dependent of mass of a body, and also the main reason for the normal force, can stop a body from changing its state.
