What is the correct definition of inertia?Science definitions for inertia. The resistance of a body to changes in its momentum. Because of inertia, a body at rest remains at rest, and a body in motion continues moving in a straight line and at a constant speed, unless a force is applied to it. Mass can be considered a measure of a body’s inertia.
Do physicists know what exactly causes inertia?This is an open question in Physics; we're not sure what causes inertia, period. Plenty of folks have taken a stab at it (Mach, Einstein, Feynman/Wheeler). That said, there are some interesting parallels in quantum theory, including the Sum over Histories interpretation (Path Integral Formulation - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_integral_formulation ), which lend themselves to an equivalent of inertia.
