Abstract
In this paper a relation between inertia of mass and force is presented. In educational contexts, the inertia is generally associated with momentum and energy. However, a direct connection between inertia and force can be also verified in a simple instance of collision. The description of this situation, from the action-reaction pair forces perspective, enlarges the meaning of inertia and highlights the coherence of Newtonian mechanics and the interrelation between concepts and their three laws.
期刊介绍：
The Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física - RBEF - is an open-access journal of the Brazilian Physical Society (SBF) devoted to the improvement of Physics teaching at all academic levels. Through the publication of peer-reviewed, high-quality papers, we aim at promoting Physics and correlated sciences, thus contributing to the scientific education of society. The RBEF accepts papers on theoretical and experimental aspects of Physics, materials and methodology, history and philosophy of sciences, education policies and themes relevant to the physics-teaching and research community.
