1.	Inertia is a scalar or a vector quantity, justify
Answer» Answer: Hi your answer is as follows Explanation: Moment of Inertia is a *tensor quantity* which MEANS it behaves as scalar and sometimes it behaves as vector quantity Reason : Moment of inertia is the property where body resists change in its STATE of rotatory motion. Inertia is a measure of mass so it is scalar quantity. But an object in rotatory motion will change its direction every point to point . HENCE it is also vector quantity. Mark as BRAINLIEST if you are satisfied with my answer

Answer:

Hi your answer is as follows

Explanation:

Moment of Inertia is a tensor quantity which MEANS it behaves as scalar and sometimes it behaves as vector quantity

Reason :

Moment of inertia is the property where body resists change in its STATE of rotatory motion.

Inertia is a measure of mass so it is scalar quantity.

But an object in rotatory motion will change its direction every point to point . HENCE it is also vector quantity.
