Answer: b. inertia

Step-by-step explanation:

Inertia can be defined as the resistance of the object against the motion or the change in the direction as a result of applicable inertia the object will remain still or constant or may keep moving at the constant speed in a straight line until an external force is applied on the object. A heavy massive object is expected to have more inertia as compared to a light object.
