A sports car and a minivan run out of gas and are pushed to the side of the road. Which is easier to push, and why? the minivan, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia
the minivan, because it has less mass and therefore less inertia
the sports car, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia
the sports car, because it has less mass and therefore less inertia

The correct option is;

The sports car, because it has less mass and therefore less inertia

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless acted on by a force. The property exhibited by the object is known as inertia

Newton's second law states that force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum produced

The rate of change of momentum of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force applied and is in the direction of the resultant force. The resultant force is equal to the rate of change of momentum.

Therefore, we have;

F = m·dv/dt = m×a

Given that the force required to move an object is directly proportional to its mass therefore, the inertia or the object resistance that requires a force to bring change is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

The mass of a sports car being considered lesser than the mass of the minivan will require less force to push and therefore has less inertia.
