Does the inertia of matter change in a black hole?

[Carlos Torres]

Hi everyone, I was in physics class and the professor asked if the inertia of matter changes in a black hole and I would like to know if anyone has the answer to this question.

What do you think and why?

That seems a slightly odd question. Is that exactly how it was asked? From your user name I guess that the question may not have been asked in English, but in that case please translate as carefully as possible. And do note phinds' reply - we're happy to help, but at PF we don't do homework for you.
