Mass is resistance to motion.

Mass is resistance to motion.

Summary

This quote suggests that mass is a property of matter that creates resistance or opposition to its motion. In other words, the more massive an object is, the more difficult it is to move or change its state of motion. This idea aligns with Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force required to accelerate an object is directly proportional to its mass. Therefore, the concept of mass can be understood as a measure of an object's inertia or its tendency to stay at rest or continue in motion.
