    Answer: The bowling ball has a inertia 100 times bigger than the one of the tenis ball.

    Explanation: Inertia depends on the mass of an object and the position/movement of it, where the relation with the mass is directly proportional.

    then if we compare the ratio of the masses of the objects, that ratio will be equal to the ratio of inertias.

    I = 6/0.06 = 100

    This means that the inertia of the bowling ball is 100 times bigger than the one of the tennis ball.

    The ratio of the masses of the bowling ball and the tennis ball is 6/0.06 = 100.

    Therefore, the bowling ball has a hundred times more inertia than the tennis ball.
